Rep Power: 334 Yeah, there is a place. I have to ask my homeboy. He told me in Santa Ana. I haven't talked to him in a couple months; so when I talk to him again, I will post it for sure. Don't worry. LOL You just have to wait for me to get in touch with him --- probably see him in a few weeks in school.

I bent one of my rims before. fixarim.com quoted me $100 to fix it!
Someone told me something like this:
The rim will not be as strong after fixing the bent - $100
Buy a new rim (RS Limited Mase) - $130
I decided not to fix the rim... sold my rims for $150 cheaper.

Rep Power: 350 If you got a deal on your rims, its prolly cheaper to get new ones. When I curbed the shiznit outta mine, they told me it was gonna be $350+ markup to fix the 2, or I could get 2 new ones for $300 out the door.
Its a celebration bitches!

Rep Power: 346 Its always better to get thicker tires. Especially rims wit lips on em'. It might not look as good but for sure it will protect ur rims. Sorry to hear that that sux!!

Rep Power: 350 Gotta sacrifice for looks man!!! But I mean, I didnt purposely go looking for stuffs to hit. I got hit at school and shoved into a curb, rashed the right rear, then my brakes locked up and killed my right sides, then this latest accident messed up the dish of my front left rim. I only got 1 good one left.
