I was going around 50 last night when all of a sudden i hear a huge noise, as I run over some huge deep strip left by construction or something. I start hearing a hissing sound, so I pull over. My left tire is completely flat. So I take off my G35 wheels and I put my stock 2.5 wheels back on, and this is what I find:
How much do you guys think it would cost to fix, or do I pretty much need to buy a new rim now?
How much to fix?

go to http://www.alshubcaps.comHes the guy who does all the g35nyc guys wheel stuff... To tell you the truth, its probably going to wind up being cheaper IMO to get a new wheel, these arent expensive wheels.
My guess would be it would run $100-200 to fix, but then its a "fixed" wheel for that price... if you could get a new one for that price, id rather have a clean wheel.

worst case scenario is go to salvage yard and sell it for scrap metal.

Re: (LongBeachCoupe)
I would just try a junk yard...
Well I ended up finding a replacement rim for this bent one instead of going the fixing route. The guy sold me the rim for $20 cause he couldn't get rid of it and theres a couple curb marks on it.... but nothing worst than what I already had on my bent wheel.
Now I gotta take my stocks off cause they look and perform god awful :O
