Ok, about a month ago i wrecked my car, or well i should say, someone hit my car. In the process two of my rims were messed up, one bent to hell and the other MAJOR curb rash. I got a call from the Nissan dealership saying that they are having problems locating my aftermarket wheels. i want to know, if i tell them i cant find them ( because i got them off a friend ) but they can replace them with a set of 4 stock because i want matching rims, will they offer to replace all 4? my friend told me that they would probably offer to replace all 4 because the body shop cant find my current ones, and to get my wheels to match i will need 4 new ones. Then i can get a price quote on 4 stock 2002 maxima rims ( which are ungodly expensive, from the dealership ) - and then i can go out and buy my own. Tell me what you think of this? will it work? thanks.. oh by the way - pics

 

advice please!!

 

im currently looking at these 18' 5ziggen's

 

How much did you insurance company say the wheels were worth? Maybe you can take that portion of the insurance payment and buy your own wheels.

 

hmm, they havent said anything, they just told me they couldnt find them, and i cant find them either.

 

Usually they give a break down when the appraiser comes out. Ask for a copy.

 

yeah, but im really hoping to get 4 new wheels, because the worth of those wheels arent going to be enough to buy a new set.

 

I just had the same issue...

The ins co. just gave me what I paid for them

 

for the full set? or for just the wheels that were damaged?

 

hmmmm i dunno

 

The adjuster may refer to the price that the original set would cost to replace. That is, if the ones that were damaged can't be found (price$$). Talk with your auto damage adjuster and try to resolve it, but make sure you walk away feeling confident with the results.
