i ruined my ssr gt1's! dammit. i made a stupid mistake and totally ruined the front driver side. i loved these wheels to death and saved up all my money just to buy these rims. After 19 years of living, i have never had a sadder day then today. does anyone have another set for sale or willing to sell me a driver side?

Hey dude...sure was a sad news to hear when we dropped by earlier. good luck and thanks for the TEs.
And if you need some new or used wheels, remember I told you about my friend's shop. Check it out ... memoryfab.com he will hook you up. Or just give me a call.

Before just giving up, try taking the wheel to Riteway wheel and tire in Walnut Creek. They can pretty much fix anything. I took a wheel with a peice torn out. They welded in a new one, ground the welds down, straightened the rim, repolished the lip and repainted the center, you cannot tell it was ever damaged.
All for around 200.00. They did this on my older C5 Corvette Rim last year. Awesome work, ask for Jose. (Old Owner, still works there).

I've had good experience with Wheel Techniques in San Jose.

The whole repair process.


There is also Wheels America in Union City. They're more reasonable priced and do a great job.

well, the thing i was told was that they couldnt fix my rims because the inside was all messed up. the part that is ruined is the place where the studs and the nuts meet. wow, that sounded horrible, but anyways. they said that the inner surface where the lugnuts go must be smooth or else the brakes will kick the rim out and it will just pop out over a certain amount of time. i dont know if any of you guys have had other experiences with this. =[. i want my rims back!

but on a good note, i shall be receiving my volk gt-c's in about a week. i hate running stockies. =D
