WTB 1 BBS Rim (dont let friends drive in rain)

As the title says... my dumb a$$ friend decided to punch it around a corner and lost control and smacked a curb with the driver side. My SE lip broke off and dented the hell out of the front rim.

Needless to say i get well shake when i go over 60mph so i need a new rim!!!

If you got a BBS let me know!!! Im on Long Island but am considering shipped rims aswell.

Thanks

Nope cuz hes broke as hell...

I am not sure what to do as far as the front bumper either.... the SE lip is broken off but i dont know how the lips mount to the bumbers so i dunno if the clips broke off the lip or i need to replace the bumper because of the broken clips..


Im just trying to tackle one fix at a time... i figure the rim is more important because i can always drive around with blue tape holding up the lip

Are you sure its the rim and not part of the suspension? Normally on an impact with a curb it has the tendency to bend suspension parts.

yeah its the rim... i took the rim off and checked the suspension... all is tight and i see no stress marks on the control arm. it all looks pretty sound... i just put the bent rim on the rear and no more wheel shake
