one slipstream

Hey i just found out that one of my slipstreams are irrepairable...went to carcone and they said it was bent on the face of the rim. Anyone know where i can get just one rim? 16" rota slipstream/gunmetal with polished lip...Thanks! oh yea 4x100

I would check with Precision Rim Repair before you give up.

Ric has said in the past that rims that were unrepairable at carcones were repairable at PRR. Talk with Ric, and tell him your from TCC.

You can even ask Cantonagod, he was there when Ric was talking about that.

I have had my wheel repaired at PRR. No complains from me. But for Rota, you might as well buy a new one, because the difference could be quite minimal.

If you can wait, I think that's the best route. But first, get a quote on fixing it of course.

Try those small car shops in pacific mall (I forgot what they're called). I bought 2 rota circuit 8's from there. they were cheap, they took cash, and it took 3 days.

I called a lot of places no one would sell just one rim. The other places who can get them are either far away or will take long periods of time. Your best bet is ebay where I found a guy that would do it for $140US shipped but you never know since custom charges, Extra shipping charges from UPS of FEDEX etc will always come into play. I brought mine to precision rim repair and they are going to fix it for me. I had my rim bent in three places lol and a bit of curb rash ....he charged me 175 plus tax. You can try there since your damage doesnt seem as bad as mine.

Did you end up taking it to PRR? I was down there yesterday, and noticed one slipstream being fixed up.
