    Sorry to hear. Are they just bent? Any chance of getting a wheel shop to straighten them out?

    Going to try and find a shop in my area and see if it's worth while. Wife nearly killed me when I went out and bought these 19 in wheels
    Yes I know... The car needs to be lowered now.. Just no money for that yet
