sup ppls, let me tell u, i have the worst luck. https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif The other day i was driving and my car was shaking bad. i went to this place that fixes flats (thinking it was a flat) only to come and find out that i have a cracked rim. :evil: Well anyways, i called up the place that i bought the rim from (about a year ago) and he's selling JUST ONE rim for $200 (est.) so i was like fuck that! i decided to call the actual manufacturer (quantum) but they CAN'T sell one rim. so i then called up wheelmax they also said the same. So WTF! does anyone know any sites/places that can sell one rim? Help a brother out, pleeeeeeease. Thanks

yo Stephen7983, thanks for the help but i didn't see my rims.

tight2def, yo, good look on the website. i emailed them to check first. Lemme cross my fingers first and hope this is the one. Thanks

wheels....., ur right there is a warranty on'em but it's a whole process. u have to give the rim to the manufacturer, then u have state wut happened, then THEY have to inspect the rim and my statements, lastly u don't know how long the process is. It's like being incarcerated for 1yr w/out doning anything wrong. Feel Me. Thanks

Yeah, that whole BS about not selling one wheel only. What if I wanted one for my full size spare. And I also want one as a window display in my new wheels shop. And one just for the hell of it. That's just lame if you asked me. Anyway, glad you found a place that will finally sell you the one wheel.

sup hotnicks, wut yr 8g-ride do u have? and how many miles do u have? cuz it might be under warranty.....but don't quote me. Cuz this dude i know who has the '01 3g eclipse, he prolly had it for about 6mo.- a yr, he had a bent rim and the dealership got him a new one. Check the dealership.

the dealership will only warranty the stuff it sells, not aftermarket parts
