Default Rims, mine are out of round

Does anyone have any rims for Sale ? My front rims are out of round and the left rear has a crack that is causing a small leak. I live in southern Ohio. Of course my crossfire has 152,000 miles on it. It is still great looking.

Why not save yourself $$$ and have the defective rims repaired. I am picking up a 19" rim on Friday that was delivered yesterday for repair. Cost: $125.
I have done this for the last 15yrs or so with a number of cars. Basically they do whatever repair is needed, strip and repaint, then clearcoat.
The company I am using is: Precision Rim Repair (rim-repair.com)
I'm sure you will find a similar shop in your area.

I just replaced all of my Stock rims at 15k with an aftermarket set.

So I have a set of front and rear Stock that I may want to part with.

They are sitting in the shop that mounted my new rims today, and I'll be picking them up this weekend.

They do have some minor road rash, but are otherwise in great shape.

Once I get them in hand I can post some pix, and if your interested, we can talk...

If you would prefer new, rather then pre-owned, I found this site that may be of interest:

Yea, who would have thunk...???

I would have sworn that the SRT wheels had to cost more than the N/A Stock rims.

What's this world coming to...

I think they have to charge a little less for the SRT wheels because they are such a nightmare to clean!!!

Try this site www.finishlinewheels.com. I bought a front wheel from them last month. Great prices and $18.00 shipping.

At the prices they charge, you'd think they would be brand spanking new...

The other website listed above was about 35% cheaper. for Stock N/A.

And it's strange, cause they had the SRT rims priced higher...

That's why it pays to shop around...
