Default Quick survey if you guys don't mind....really, really easy:

1) Have you purchased aftermarket wheels?
2) What was purchase price of said wheels (or current value)?
3) Have you ever had damage to said wheels?
4) How many incidents incurring damage?
5) Cost to repair/replace damage?

If you have aftermarket wheels, and no damage has ever occured, please just answer as to the value of wheels and ignore the other questions.

Thanks for your time. We are just trying to compile some statistical information......

Purchased a couple of years ago at dealer for about 1500.

Hit a curb at an highway off ramp on a dark rainy night. Bent both left driver and passenger rim beyond repair. Purchased two more. Had curb rash repaired on passenger side for 175 each. Total out of pocket to date about 2600.
