Agreed on full retail, but some were talking about market value and ebay and that would be less than $513/wheel new. Depending on the mileage on the tires and condition of the wheels, they are going for $400-$450 with tires.

thats why i got the wheel and tire warranty for 600 bucks, replaces wheels and tires, for the lifetime of the car, and if you get a good service tech they can put the wheels in everytime they need replacing, first set pays for itself

You should take a close look at your tire and wheel contract, I think its covered a max of 5 years, I never heard of lifetime coverage

depending on which tire warranty company you got, alot of them covers aftermarket wheels also, The one that I got for my G covers up to 1200 a wheel. I paid $700 for my warranty. My gf had it for her Is250 and we put chrome 1s350 wheels on it and at first the dealer gave us a hard time, but we eventually agreed to them just paying for oem is350 wheels in silver cause chrome was not a factory option. still came out to 775 a wheel. we paid $475 for the tire warranty. lol
