Default Advices of the damaged ce28's

Crashed into the curb, damaged both passenger wheels. Are these still repairable? Or no hope? Or buying other two will be cheaper and better than get them fixed? Please let me know, thank you so much!

Yeah I wouldn't trust them. I have seen some impressive repairs on wheels but especially that torn one is toast. Another thing to think of is the Volk bronze is anodized and unique to Volk (pretty sure it cannot be refinished exactly the same) and you would have to refinish all the wheels after the repair for them to match.

It certainly would but it could also be a constant reminder of a very bad day and possibly a silly mistake.
