Be careful on I-40 near West Memphis

[jarred52]

I ended up bending a rim so badly that it couldn't be repaired (yes, alloy rims can sometimes, perhaps even usually, be repaired at ~$160 a pop). The dealer ordered a new rim (at about $960[!!!] including mount and balancing) and hopefully it goes on tomorrow. Hopefully that will cure the vibration I've been having.

I got a nice one (one small area of curb rash) off Ebay for $200 to use as a full size spare. If going on the care full time, I would have had the rash removed. If you watch Ebay and Craigs List, you can occasionally find them; nice to have a matching spare or just a spare wheel in case of problems like above.

I wouldn't touch Craig's List with a 10' pole, but as for eBay, that's a fantastic idea; thank you!!! Of course, the primary market for that extra wheel is this forum, so now that it's been posted, the market will likely spike .

ffffFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!! \/\/HAT???

Dude - that's a SET of rims! NICE ones, too!

Finally found a set that I like enough to put on my car, though they're from a Mustang . Check out the wheels in this video at about 15 seconds or so. In any case, even if there was a way to make them fit on the Genesis, I've spent too much on the car this year and won't be messing around with it anymore.
