so i can get a set of enkei 20s with toyo proxys on them from my friend for 300$ but the problem is one of his rims is bent from going into a ditch to avoid hitting someone, how hard is it for a company to bend it back, and is it still a good deal the tires are in great shape and same iwth the rims aside from the bent one

 

how bout just buying a new wheel?

 

i was gunna do that as a last ditch thing becuase i only found them online at a couple stores and there like 250-300 for a new one so i was hoping to fix it for cheaper becuase i want to get them powder coated black and the cost of one rim is almost twice as much as what i can get them all powdercoated from

 

a shop around here charges like $85

 

where are you at, im in michigan and im finding places but for the most part there like two hours away which ill do if i have to but if anyone knows any by mt clemens let me know

 

You cannot safely bend back aluminum. Once aluminum is bent, it loses all structural integrity and becomes very weak. Take a piece of aluminum and bend it. Now bend it back to where it used to be and 9 times out of 10 it will break off. I dunno if they properly heat it up, but depending on the severity your better off buying a new rim.

Toyo Proxes are terrrible tires. I just thought you'd wanna know that. Def not a truck tire. More like a car touring tire.

 

i'll second that, aluminum is fragile. ive had parts on sport bikes snap right in half.

but i dont think proxes are half bad.

 

yeah he hasnt had a problem with the proxes but i found out its an enkei solar rim

 

Enkie makes a good quality product. They are a bit pricey, but well worth the money. I used to have a black mesh style on my Mustang years ago.
But, any wheel is subject to bend when in the situation that your buddy had!!

 

yeah broke the back axle and put a nice dent in his bed becuase some lady cut him off driving down the road so he swerved to avoid her crashed and then got a ticket for loosing control, yeah i was thinking about trying to contact enkei to see if they will do anything special
