I only need 1 or 2 due to a pothole the size of a lake in NYC. I found out it will cost me around $150 to repair one that is scratched pretty badly. one is only scratched a little but I would like replace it if possible.

thanks,

Where in NYC is this pothole? Us Tri-State peeps want to know!!!

 

I may have 2 undamaged white 5 stars from my total loss . If the insurance company lets me have them I'll PM you. I should know by next week.

If not these are sold on ebay a lot for a lot less than it would cost you repair a wheel.

 

Thanks Dvlmini, I am definitely interested. I haven't seen any on Ebay, I don't want to get a whole set and thats all I have seen. although, now that I think about it I could probably get a whole set and sell the other two.. please let me know when you find out. and I am really sorry about your mini. I hope your next one makes you even happier.

Dandp, I thought most of NYC was potholes...lol. Back in June, I hit this particular one right outside of Home Depot in Brooklyn. I couldn't believe how large it was! I was stopped at the red light, waiting to turn right and as soon as I gave it gas BAM! I was so worried that I had popped a tire or bent the rim but it doesn't look like it, just major scraping. the last time I was there I went back to take a picture but it had been filled in. My sister has a shop in Red Hook and I try to get up there from time to time.

cometgirl63, thanks! I am heading to Park Slope tomorrow and wanted to keep an extra eye out for disaster!

Small world :smile: , my aunt owns a shop in Red Hook too . If you still can find a pair of replacement wheels, i have a whole set that i am willing to sell for cheap if you want all four.

 

bump- I'm still looking. I did find a full set on Ebay but they're $350, more than I want to spend.
