Thread: No more orange wheels

  1. #1

    Default No more orange wheels

    I got ran off the road coming home around the lake a couple of nights ago and bent 2 of my rims, so I am shopping for something different.
    I would replace the ones that are bent but they wouldn't match.
    Just thought I would share.

    Put the 2 new ones on the same side.

    You could always take this as an opportunity to become the first Miata rolling 22s.

    nah I wanna keep the 15X7 profile...lol

    any suggestions on what to replace them with?
    I would like to keep around 12lbs or lighter, and around 100.-120. per wheel.

    Was there another car involved in this off road excursion? Did they even stop?

    That sucks. Maybe you can get it taken care of via your uninsured motorist coverage.

    Nope they didn't stop.
    I thought about the insurance but i have a 500. ded.
    I'm just glad nothing else got bent or torn up.

    I would also recommend an alignment asap too. If you bent wheels you might have knocked it out of alignment.

    I need new tires anyhow, so I will likely just get the whole deal....tires,wheels and alignment.
    I am thinking about just getting a whole new set of the Kolors, at least that way i will have a couple of spares in the future......and you guys can continue to rip on them

    I thought I would probably pull the wheels Sunday and have a good look at everything, may post some pics.
