Hey I just did a fish tail on pure cemant and then i wiped out and I hit a curb pretty hard and now my tire is bulged out in one spot and dented in, in another spot and my rim is cracked about an inch in width.

Would anyone know how much it would cost to fix it, or would i just have to buy a new tire and rim. I have a 2002 honda accord.

Thx

Go and check with Alberta Wheel Repair. They're in the phone book. I hit a curb with one of my stock rims, it was pushed in about an inch. Cost around $150 to repair.

If the tire has a big buldge in it, it will most likely have to be replaced.

:thumbsup: to Alberta Wheel Repair. I hit a curb, and a chunk of the wheel came out, and they were still able to repair it.

Depends on the damage. I just had two of my tantrums resurfaced there, for $110/wheel.

That pic is painful....
I think they used to have a website with before and after pics...
I was amazed...
