UPDATED: CHEAP 14.5lb 17" Centerline Excels

UPDATE: I want to sell these ASAP. $300(obo) + actual shipping from 30124

I had these wheels for about 8-10k miles. These are 17x7 14.5 pound forged aluminum wheels. They retail for over $350 a peice (thats $1400 a set). I hit a large pothole in downtown Atlanta (going about 30mph) and did some decent damage to two of the passenger side wheels. Look at the pics for close-ups. Talk about pissed . Well, instead of getting them repaired and since I was looking at new wheels anyways I am selling these. I had them on my car for over a month with no air leak so they are definately still drivable as is. These would be great to use for auto-x or even track use as is but you could also get any good wheel repair place to bend them straight for not that much.

TWO WHEELS ARE BENT, ONE HARDLY NOTICABLE ON THE FRONT SIDE.
Make me an offer.


Big bend:

Little bend (on far right side):

Little bend, the back side is a little worse than the front.

Big bend front side is a little worse than back:

Do you have any pics of the wheels on your car? It's hard (for me, at least) to visualize them when their sitting on the floor.

picture

i only took a few pictures of the damage on the car, and this is the only one that I have that is clear. I see that you live in Georiga, so do I. I am a student at Ga tech and the wheels are at my house in Rome, Ga. If you want to meet up to look at the wheels before you buy them, that is cool (as long as you are serious, cause it will be a slight pain to go home, load the wheels in my car and then drive to meet you). Some of the pics really make the bends look huge due to the shadow effect.

Here is the backside of the SMALL bend:

I've never had bent wheels fixed. Any idea of what repairs would cost?
