    Hey everyone,

    I don't have a post count high enough to put this in Garage Sale forum, so my apologies for posting this in the wrong area.

    Just last weekend I screwed up and curb rashed one of my rims trying to avoid an accident :sad:.

    Does anyone have any OEM STi rims that would fit the 2011 model? I really only need one, but, I will be in Atlanta for another year so having a spare(s) would be a good idea.

    Also, if someone could help me out and move this to the Garage Sale section?

    Thanks,
    Mark

    Hi Mark,

    What's the condition of the wheel? You might be able to get it repaired for cheaper than buying a new(ish) one...

    give Joe at Accurate Alloy a call. He might can save you a lot of money!

    I had Redline repair my oem rim. They're mobile and come to you. I think it was around $100 for the repair.

    Mason from Redline does all the wheels for my dealership. Give him a ring at 678-451-3500 and tell him Kevin sent you over and he'll hook you up.

    Hey guys,

    Thanks for the replies! I contacted Allpro and they said they had a rim specialist thats mobile.

    He is to contact me and hopefully line something up this afternoon.

    The condition of the rim is pretty harsh, but its not leaking air, and as far as I can tell, it is not cracked.

    I'm going to try to repair the rim, and I believe I found 1 OEM rim for sale on ebay. So, worst case scenario, I'll pick that up and have someone mount it for me.

    But, if anyone does end up having an extra rim, it would be good to have a spare on hand for just these kinds of occasions.


    Thanks again!
    Mark
