WTB New Rims - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #57468 14 posts Started by massbrandon
I am in need of some new rims. I didn't know that the sand and salt here in Mass would destroy my rims the way they did. I am not looking to spend an awful amount so please keep it in reason. I am only looking to spend around 275-300 shipped. I do not need tires. If the rims come with tires already on them I won't pay any extra. Or, if anyone knows where I can get my rims resurfaced here in Mass that would be greatly appreciated. I have found a few places but they want more to fix them than my rims are worth.

Hey Brandon, what's up?
Yeah getting wheels repaired is kind of pricey. If it's just the black center... just repaint, but if it's the lip find a bike shop to polish it out for you. If you want new 18's check out my thread biggrin.gif
you could always send them my way to get powdercoated. that will prtect it from any future oxidation or corrosion.

I would do that but I do not have any spares. I would love to keep my rims but I can not wait 1.5 weeks to get them re-finished. That and the cost of getting them re-finished is over 400 bucks

what size are your rims and what color would you want them? please include the width as well as height

Gi_Shu_Som Powdercoating FTMFW!!!!
17 inch wheels, black with polished lip, and I would just want them all black. As far as width, I have no idea.
yeah, i would charge $425 to do them that way.

^^ my rims aren't close to being worth that. Plus you are in Virginia.

there is some minor curb damage which is shown in the pics, price range is right up your alley

Jason, if I wouldn't have to buy new tires I would jump on those man. Good luck with the sale though.
are you looking for just wheels? or wheels and tires?

Well, I already have 17's (wheels and tires). If i find another set of 17's I just need rims. If I find something larger or smaller I will need tires also.
