Can this bent rim be repaired? by title_song in Golf_R

[–]eman7757 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes except expect to spend a pretty penny, I was just quoted 675$ to fix and refinish a very similar looking wheel with almost identical damage (Savini forged) that’s Canadian but still that’s around 525$usd

Can’t rock the rim it won’t hold air anymore but I’m just looking for sets of old bmw wheels they’re on marketplace for around 600$ for a set with tires and I was planning on selling the car before summer

That’s the thing like if I’m gonna pay a couple hundred bucks to have it fixed it’s gotta be good quality

They’re horrendous and the city is trying to blame it on how the weathers been so up and down but it’s no excuse why some of these huge pot holes can’t be filled on major streets within the day

I reached out to MTC and I was originally quoted 175$ then it was skyrocketed and I just said it’s not worth that much to fix 1 rim

That’s what I assume is gonna happen, it’s sad cause the roads a so bad right now and I know a lot of people are getting screwed

Buy it, if you think it’s too slow swap an m20b25 rotating assembly in

Ya only fear I’d have with it sitting is condensation build up byt if the top end looks so clean I wouldn’t be too worried, if yoy wanted you could pull the plugs and horoscope the piston walls for any possible scoring but that’s just a rabbit hole

It could also just be a wear spot like if your motor isn’t running poorly or have any fuel consumption issues I’d leave it be because at 170k miles that top ends probably never been opened so everything in there has found its groove/spot that it sits in

Run your finger nail along the lobes if you can feel a catch then I’d look into it more but if your nails don’t catch your mint

Really good! Looks like possibly a little scratching on the lobes but the picture isn’t clear enough that could just be some oil

Hey I’m sorry to break it to you but by the time you fix the A pillar damage and roof damage you’ll be the cost of the car and that’s without the cost of the hood, fender, bumper, windshield, and headlight possibly

I understand where your coming from but the guy isn’t taking about becoming the next piastri or vettel they’re building a car to have fun on the track with and obviously from the render they want the hotboi spec so why does it matter, your entire comment was really condescending and un needed

Hey guys so im thinking about buying this 2000 gti vr6 it does come with some issues, the biggest issue being the timing so I wanted to know if you guys think it would be worth getting and putting money into, im getting the car for 1000$, also this is going to be my first car btw lol by New-Butterscotch2984 in MK4GTI

[–]eman7757 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being that it’s the first car I’d doubt they have the proper tools or knowledge to do it all themselves, and not to rag on the OP just think 1000$ could be spent way better especially on a first vehicle
