What should I do With all my cracked RIMS

Baseball7382 · 09-18-2011, 08:20 PM

Anyone have any idea if I can scrap these anywhere for any money? Tried having 1-2 of the rims welded but they crack again within a month and it's not worth the $100 dollar it cost to get welded. I'm really considering just not dealing with rims ever again even though they make the car look so good. It's impossible here in NJ.

Its possible, just get a better quality wheel

Baseball7382 · 09-18-2011, 10:17 PM

(4) Miro M6 Rims and (2) OEM's...anywhere I can scrap um...and stronger and quality rims are definitly needed...

dude i had the miro reps before, they're weak as shit for these roads. i kept cracking 2 consistently and decided that as much as i love how they look they SUCK for roads that arent completely smooth as they can't take a hit IMO

best idea.

Lowkey335 · 09-18-2011, 10:39 PM

What size are they? I went from 19" VMR's (that really took some hits pretty good) to 18" Breyton Race GTS and they are amazing.....so much lighter, they look awesome, the car handles better and I hit some serious potters and the wheels are fine.

I do like the table idea though!!!! lol

7e90dan · 09-19-2011, 01:48 AM

Or u could just give em to me?

+1 the wheel I cracked over this past summer is now my coffee table in my apt at school.

I even have a old rotor I painted and bolted in there. Looking to get a set of those caliper covers to place on top of the rotor and some LEDs to light up the center.

find a bar and start curling those badboys... seven seven sevens....

LaLakers91tc · 09-19-2011, 07:48 AM

miro's are pretty shitty. My friend has the 313 performance reps in 18, and they just keep cracking! My VMR's had a tendancy to bend, and then eventually cracked after about two years, but never at the rate of the miros.
Thats why I had to go forged for this latest set.

StatenEye · 09-19-2011, 08:06 AM

I would buy an oem off of you for 20 bucks, to use as a spare.

Note to self.... "Never buy Miro rims".
