About how much to get a new one from the factory?

Cause obviously after my incident, heres a reference...

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=191702

I obviously need to get a new rim. I just talked to the dealer, he said the 'cross member is bent, the frame is off a little... etc. Not the best news I've heard, but i guess thats what insurance is for. Too bad its gonna **** up my rates.

Anyway...the guy I spoke to claims an OEM Enkie costs close to $600 from mitsu. To me, this sounds no where close to accurate. Seeing as I could buy 18" Volks for less than that per wheel. Anybody know around the asking price for one?

Off topic...but does anyone know the weight of the stock Enkei rims? Also how is it pronounced? "En-kEYE", "En-KEY" or another way? I've been wondering forever.

I believe that the correct pronunciation is "INKEY", with the accent on the first syllabel.

unless im mistaken, enkei = japanese corp.

if that's the case, then inkey is incorrect
its pronounced ehn-kai...
