Price for a new Ultimate front 19" alloy wheel.

[nickpike]

Hi, I scraped my alloy wheel on a curb. The new cost for a front 19" allow wheel, ultimate type, in rip-off England is £972, about $1250. That's one wheel.
Anyone know the cost of a new alloy in the USA for comparison?

cheers
Nick

I'm not sure if the European's comes with the same wheels as US, but check this one out, it says its an OEM 19'' front wheel http://www.ebay.com/itm/2015-2016-Factory-Hyundai-Genesis-19-OEM-Front-Wheel-Rim-70872-/192039070479

Even with shipping charges, it shouldn't cost more than ~$550.00

Why not get the wheel refinished?

Buy the wheel from Korea for $250. I'm sure the shipping will cost a lot. Have the wheel refinished as somebody else said.

Any links please? I don't think we do refinishing here. Will check with dealer today.

The wheel can be brought back to new by refinishing. I doubt the dealer will do this however it's worth a shot. Go to the local wheel dealer in your area and ask. A new wheel at the dealer is around $1300, refinishing probably around $200 or less. Search on line as there are even places that come to your door. http://tirebutler.com/rim-repairs/.

I had purchased 4 wheels however they arrived damaged from delivery. Had them recoated to another color. Came out better than the originals so I had the other 4 done the same way. Sanding, a little filler if required, paint and a clear coat. See here.
