Kore wheels damaged in wreck

[RailroadJim]

My truck has $7500 dollars worth of damage so says the other guys adjuster, two of my old kore weld wheels are damaged as well, does anyone know where i can buy two wheels?? They are the old weld cheyenne 18x9, weld no longer makes these and DRC sold out long ago. Some idiot in a nissan titan plowed into me on the highway and wrecked the whole passenger side:{:{

You're probably out of luck. I see Weld carries the Cheyenne with a 6" backspace. . . the catch is that backspace is only available on the 17x8. 5" and the 20x8. 5" wheels.

screwed

Out of luck is right, what really sucks is that only two wheels are damaged so i'll be compensated just for them, i was hoping someone on this forum might have a spare or two sitting around collecting dust. Are there any other 18" rims with a 6. 5 back space?

I will ask around. Seems like I remember somebody having a couple of spares laying around. I will pm you if I find any.

Oh no!!!



My wheels!!!



Sorry to hear about your wreck. At least you are ok. I hope Keg comes through for you.



(My girlfriend is still giving me a hard time for getting rid of those... In fact, she mentioned it this past weekend. Again. )

Railroadjim,

I have 4 w/ 35 inch toyo's in my shed. I don't think i will sell 2 as it would leave me w/ 2. They are in good condition w minor pits from winter driving. I don't use them in the winter anymore. The toyos have apx 40% tread left on them.



I will sell all 4 for $1200 + shipping



Let me know

Fixing alloy wheels is common practice these days. Have you looked into that. High end body shops usually know who is repairing them.

Thanks

Thanks diesel dan for the offer and that's a good deal, can you email some detailed pics?? I'll send you a PM, I might be able to use the damaged rims if they are still straight or can be straightened out. Just returned from the body shop and the dude said they looked okay just with chunks out of the edges, he knows a shop that can check them out.
