I love my stock wheels but after owning my brand new 03 Max I hit a pothole here in Pa and slightly bent both right wheels. Dealer quoted me $657 a piece to replace. My insurance company just gave me $417 after $500 deductible. I'd like to spend around $180 a piece for new wheels but am wondering if there are any I should go for or stay away from? I was looking at these:

I'd also like to keep using the stock tires.
Thanks

 

The 4th ones are the best, but I would look at this as an opportunity to sell your tires and upgrade to 18"s. 17"s are too small and the stock tires suck really bad, especially in wet weather.

 

I live in Pa-the pothole state-. I already bent both rightside rims and the 18's would only bend easier right? BTW I've have my car 7 weeks on thursday and have 7900 miles on it-I bought it with 70 miles.
I'm a sales rep. that drives alot of miles.

 

Well, if you are going to get 17"s and you insist on keeping your stock tires, get anything that does NOT have a lip because it will make your wheels look smaller.

Wheels 1-2 will probably look best in 17"s. Wheel 3 is really overplayed, but it is 8" wide, which is a huge bonus.

 

Jason if you are looking for STRONG wheels, stay AWAY from Konig...you thought stocks were bad, wait till you get a konig

 

If you like the look of your stock rims, go on eBay and do a search for auctions by user Moore9911. Send them an email or see if you can get their number and give them a call. They sell replica rims (built to OEM specs). I ordered a 2k 17" rim from them for $140 + $20 shipping. Looks really good too.

If you're going w/ the new ones, I like option 2.
