You can trust your family when your gone..
Ok, I leave for vancouver for 4days... Leave my keys in my g/f's bedroom behind her jewelry box and leave my car parked outside her house..
I get home yesterday, and notice there is a chunk of dirt on my bumper.. I think, ok... maybe someone just put some dirt on my car to fuck with me... cause they know how anal I am about how clean I keep my car..
I get in my car.. realize the seat is farther back than I usually keep it and my faceplate is on my stereo... (which I make sure to take off since I live basically on china town)
I kinda shake my head... figuring maybe I left it on, and maybe I got something out of the backseat, explaining why the seat is back.
I go to the carwash and when Im wiping off my rims I notice HUGE FUCKING CURB RASH ON THE RIM!
Ok... now I've been driving my car for about a year now with my new rims, and have been OVER cautious with my parking... because I know how much I spent on my fucking rims..
This makes no sense to me... I dont understand it at all.. I went over my car with a fine comb with about 5 guys the night I put my car in the feild and I would have noticed the gouge in my rim.
Only explanation Is that SOMEBODY drove my car when I was away.. But no one is fessing up... So its a lost cause..
There is my story... and the point of this post is to find out if anyone here knows how much it would cost to get my rim fixed... ballpark...
and where to get it done..
thanks.
(im done my venting) |

WOW i would be pissed. It's one thing to ask to barrow a car, but stealing it and running it in to curbs i reaaly really not cool.
Wheel works can fix it i am sure. they are almost always $125.00 to fix wheels. my bro and i have fixed 8 wheels there over the past 2 years and they do good work. We don't hit curbs, just fix whats already been done.
I am sorry you can't trust your family with your car keys for 4 Days.

Wheel Works
It cost me $175/rim to repair some HUUUUUUGE curb rash
spanned 1/2 the circumference of the rim
now the rim looks brand new! |

| I don't get it. If it was in your girlfriends room why do you think it was your family? Does she live with you and your family and someone else had access to the room? |

Since the driver's seat was moved back, it was someone taller than you driving it. That probably lets the women off the hook, unless they're taller than you, too. Estimate how tall the person was by how much you are too far back from the steering wheel.
What radio station was the stereo left on to? Who in the family listens to that particular station?
That'll probably give you some clues.......... |

I had 2 wheels fixed at wheel works, not just curb rash.. but hunks taken out.. I was run off the road and slammed into a curb sides at 50km/h, basically has all new suspension and cross members put on.
I was pricing out new ones, $300 a pop and fixing was cheaper.. well the body shop sent them off to be fixed. and I couldn't tell where the damage was... and I knew where it was(based off the valve stem). |

Confront the brother you think did it, if he denies it, threaten both of them, and say you'll continue beating them both untill they rat each other out.
There's no way I'd be footing the bill for that one. |

| I just had a wheel repaired at Wheelworks and they did a good job overall and I would recommend them. My only problem was it took way longer than they originally told me. Twice I went in when it was supposed to be done and I was told "come back next week". That was annoying. And the lip on my one repaired wheel doesn't quite match the other 3 anymore, but you can't tell unless they are side by side and you look really close. |

well being that the seat was back farther would make me think that the brothers are bigger than him hahaha.... either that or someone had sex in his drivers seat hahaha |

Or someone short tried to cover their tracks, and slid the seat back too far. |

both are well over 250lbs.. 1 having spent 4yrs in max security in ontario for armed robbery and putting a police officer into the hospital.
I'm staying away from the threatening idea..
Anywho, I've made up my mind to just drop it and dish out the couple hundred bucks to fix the rim.. seeing how both brothers are unemployed and dont have any money anyways. |
