I really love these original rims but I really don't want to drop the 2k+ to get the two rims replaced. What rims are you guys running and what would you recommend? I want to keep the original look as best as I can, don't want anything too crazy or flashy.

Any and all help is appreciated, thanks!

Pictures: Imgur First picture is the chunk of wood I hit and the second is my car being prepped for towing.
I see sets of OEM wheels for sale all the time on craigslist. I would also take a good look at the undercarriage of tyhe car. That big a piece of wood could have done some serious damage.

Make a claim with your ins co if you have collission.
