save and just buy some wider wheels... for me, $1100 isn't worth the color change...

shouldnt be more then 50-60 per wheel. Just be careful with the wheels and who you take them to, theres a member here that had 3 outta his 4 pc'd oem wheels fail on him. Consensus was it was the PC'er fault.

yeah mike i know where that is, i'll talk to em tomorrow. someone told me $50 a wheel down in SA but... thats a f-kin long haul.
EDIT: No Mike, drew didn't and niether did Aaron, some other guy did who "worked" there. but aaron and drew are telling me $750 still bs

you can fail at PC.. well i guess you can fail at most things... what was wrong in the end after he got his wheels back?
