NEED NEW RIMS... my gf broke mine - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

ATLCamrySwerverIV · 09-07-2009, 09:07 PM

Hi Everyone!!! I just became a member of the toyota nation forum (like 5 min ago). I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can get some used BBS RK 18" rims. I let my gf drive my car this past weekend and she took it upon herself to run my car into a curb. Now I have two broken rims that are irrepairable. Can anyone help me find some replacement rims? Or is anyone out there selling the set the no longer want? Please contact me soon with any information to this regard. Im looking to purchase ASAP.

Oh, and for you car fanatics I will post a picture of my Camry. Its an 03 Camry LE. Came with leathers, rear lip, and the BBS rims. I added an Alpine stereo. Feel free to let me know what you think about the car.

Those are pretty hard to come by.... make her pay for them or never let her drive your car again.

I've heard too many different versions of this story enough times.

Good luck finding replacements, that sucks to hear.

try trdsparks and trdparts4u.com.........both have the rks for pretty good prices, may have to search for them... They are only under certain camry's and solaras ....good luck...

this is why my gf doesn't drive my car.. my mom did scratch my front lip though......you can't tell though because i use that thing like a snowplow..

Don't let anyone drive your car! EVER! Post pics of the damage, I'm curious as to how bad they are. Also make sure to get an alignment and have the rest of the front suspension checked out if she hit it that hard.

Oh my god man, why on earth would you let your gf drive your car? No matter how nice she is, you NEVER EVER, EVER let anyone else drive your car!

Welcome to TN sorry to hear about your rims..

I saw this and had to post it...

IPDaily · 09-07-2009, 11:58 PM

that's what you get for letting a woman drive your car...

oh god... is there a place women can go to purchase a license? My gf's aunt side swiped my entire left side of my car last year.. front fender, dented doors all the way to the rear quarter panel... she paid me back 800 and I paid the other 300.. most women (99.998%) cant drive, true story.

Back on topic though, if its not urgent you can check on craigslist, ebay or local car forums, there are usually a few sets circulating around somewhere

Pawel062 · 09-08-2009, 08:01 AM

High 5 to that.

Do I have the only wife/girlfriend that can drive? Seems like it...

Sorry to hear about the wheels man, did you check the for sale section of the TN forums? Might want to check Craigslist.com also.

^ +1 She's not my gf/wife but we're really good friends and i trust her with my car...she hasn't proven me wrong either.
