Repairing rims is iffy at best. Check kijiji or any other buy/sell site for used rims becasue there are alot of people swaping to aftermarket. Maybe this is your opportunity to get some nice rims yourself :thumbsup:

Pics of damaged rims please :D

Alberta Wheel Repair is ~$120 per rim to repair, but you have an LX so it will not be worth it to repair.

If you want an upgrade, you should be able to find some Si wheels for a decent price. Or I have some steel wheels that will fit your car with winter tires (90% tread) for sale, if you can't find anyone selling wheels.

These ones will fit your car for $200 in the marketplace:

Sorry, I didn't read your post well enough. Just realized they are alloy wheels...

Alberta Wheel Repair specializes in repairing Alloy rims so if you just curbed two of the wheels it might be worth your while if you can't find any LX rims for sale on kijiji or anywhere else.

Check for suspension damage or alignment problems that may have resulted from the hit.
