How much does a nice set of rims cost?
A new set of rims can cost as little as R1498.81, but prices increase for upgraded materials, designs, and sizes.
Rims for luxury or vintage vehicles that require custom manufacturing can cost upwards of R16653.43. However, purchasing used or reconditioned rims can help bring this price down substantially.
What happens if the rim is bent?
Even a minor bend in your rim can spell serious trouble for your vehicle when left unrepaired.
The change in road vibrations and driving patterns can cause issues with your vehicle’s axles, damage your healthy tires, disrupt your driveshaft, and so much more.
