2 holes are bigger and washer came off






can this rim be used and is it safe with those 2 bigger holes on it

red sport 19s

 

had red
sports powder coated glossy black

 

Looks like the wrong lug nut was used and caused the damage.

Not sure if its repairable and still be safe.

 

Out of the 4 rims, wonder why this one had 3-4 washers on the back of it

 

Those aren't washers, that's part of the wheel lug hole that broke off.

 

It's probably safe to bolt up, if the front flange where the proper Nissan lug nut washers sit isn't damaged. But it probably won't balance well with the weight difference.

To be on the safe side, I would be looking for a replacement.

 

That's what I was thinking looking at the pics. Someone probably torqued down hard on a tapered lug nut in a washer-style lug hole, and punched right through the aluminum.

I wouldn't use a wheel damaged like that. Seems like an accident waiting to happen.

 

Crazy bought the rims like that and never noticed and till after powder coating
would The washers be able to come off before powder coating
wonder if the heat melted the washers to the rim

 

yes been looking for 19x9 47 offset
think new would be good

do you think you’ll be OK to use a spare tire? Damage one

 

Shops that powder coat do wheels all the time, so you think they would have said something. Not that it matters now, it is what it is. Sure is an odd thing.

Good luck.

BTW, while not a fan of those OEM Red Sport wheels, they sure do look good in gloss black.

 

yes I agree
This whole rim process had been a night nightmare

guy I bought it from said square set from his awd q50 all 4 rims were 19x9

when I checked 3 out of the 4 was 19x9 so I didn’t notice the damaged rim was 19x9.5 offset 50
seller wanted 650 for rims and tires but no wheel center caps or tmps
Tires were meh ok - 2 tires were Dunlop and other 2 were 2 different kinds
I offered 400 cause no caps or tmps
he took offer

after the powder coating I sent him a pic of the 19x9.5 rim
he sent me back a hundred bucks and gave me his old tmps

then I sent him pics of the washers on he felt bad and gave me back my 300 and said just keep the rims
I was stoked af

600 for powder coat and looking for one rim to get powder coated and I will just get all new tires and I’ll be ready to go

 

would u know where I could order wheel center caps for rims
been looking around online and it’s not to good

research showed new oem was 125ish per cap for each rim

 

Z1 maybe? Otherwise likely Ebay.
