Sorry bro! IMO if any of you think your wheel will look just as good as new coming out of a rim repair shop has got a big surprise coming. At least from my experience in Miami is your better off buying a new wheel.

I'm so happy to be leaving Eastern Canada this summer (south east Ontario) I've been here nearly 5 years and really had enough. The roads are trash, the drivers woefully underskilled and the main highways are only 100km/h max!

Well that did get to me. Should have done my homework before i bought them and I'm in no way being critical about Vossen. Any wheel with a stainless steel lip is unrepairable and with the road conditions up here well let's just say it's not the best idea to run 20 inches wheel. But the first time i came upon this website and saw those modded G with Vossen wheels my brain whent out the window. Just had to have them. Yesterday i was thinking of going back to stock 19" rims. But in the mean time i had to run some errands and it was a beautiful and warm sunny day so washed the car first.
when i got to my first destination, looking at my car i said to myself "Aint no way in hell i'm getting rid of these beauties" So i guess brain is still out the window. Gonna order a replacement wheel this week. $$$$$ Please Vossen be nice to me.

^^lol it's hard to go back to the stockies after you have better looking wheels. I'm sure Vossen will hook you up good luck.
