    Default Rim Question

    Hello all:

    One of my rims is bent. Do you think I should order a new Transwheel rim from rockauto for 80 dollars, get one at the dealership, or go to a junk yard?

    Thank you very much

    -Hyundai Dude

    get whatever matches the rest of your wheels and costs the least. but it should definitely match.

    Check ebay. A dealership will charge you way too much.

    Find a car like yours in an apartment parking lot or something late at night, jack the car up, take their good wheel, install bad wheel in place of good wheel. It's free. Oh yeah, bring a gun in case the owner's of the car catch you. You can pop a couple in them if they start yelling at you. Next time they'll know not to interrupt someone trying to jack their crap.

    Edit: Make sure you drink a couple of bottles of cough syrup with codeine before doing this.

    If i filled my gas tank with half Shell with V-Power, and the other half with Chevron with Techron gas...does that mean that my gas is V-TEC?

    is it an aftermarket rim? there are shops that will charge you a small fee to fix your bent rim, I had 1 bent rim that got repaired for $50, they mounted it in some machine and when i got it back 1hr later it was like new again.

    When I die, I want to die like my grandfather–who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.

    ehh Id say smash and grab job, if youve got 3 friends I cant see it being a problem.
    Although instead of jacking the car up at that rate u might as well just take it

    oh and gut it for parts since most likely if its another elantra theyre probably tuners as well and have aftermarket parts at your disposal...
