Hey guys, i'll try to keep this short and simple....

basically, i bought a set of wheels of craigslist a bit ago, and me, being the idiot i am, ever so slightly bent one on a curb. you cant even notice the bend unless your staring at it inches away....but its enough that it doesnt hold air.

so i basically now have 4 new tires, and 3 rims....

took it to NTB to get it repaired, they said they couldnt do it, cuz apparently it had been repaired once before :mad:


so now, question is, i need some help trying to find this rim...

its an ADR-16 Venomous Gloss black 18'x7.5' , 4x100, 4x114.4 , 42mm offset...

Basically just an adr venomous black 18' 4 lug wheel....

The sites maxspeed performance and avn motorsports are both out of stock on the wheel, no suggested in stock date....

i called ADR and they said they might have a shipment coming in september but they didnt know/think so.... (good customer service... :boo:)

your probably wondering why im making such a big deal about it, but

#1 its because im a broke high school kid, and dont wanna have to buy a completely new set....

#2 its urgent because of this...

or if you guys had suggestions on how to fix it...?

the bend isnt bad at all...ever so slight...but im afraid to take a torch to it seeing how its an aluminum alloy.....


any help would be appreciated.... :(

thanks guys

Guy at NTB didn't know what he was talking about. A bend is repairable, find another place to take it.
