Huh!? $700 for a Tesla 20" wheel? Cheap! I saw that the CTR wheel from Honda lists for @ $1200 each. Wondering if anyone has replaced a wheel and how much Honda really charged for the wheel.

All my wheels are bent and every pothole makes me cringe as a result.

I have the tire and wheel package through, so hopefully when I finally push my luck it’ll prevent me from paying out of the ass.

That warranty doesn't cover potholes... I've tried this.... it will get you $30 off of our $300+ tires though.....

New 18" wheels and thick tires on the way

Great, so if my luck runs out I better have a couple of grand handy is what you’re telling me.
Yeah basically, I say buy some aftermarket wheels and save the stock ones as spares

I’d double check the fine print on your wheel and tire coverage. I know for a fact the one I purchased covers damage from potholes, road debris, curbs, ect. I’ve already used it once to have a tire replaced and wheel straightened after hitting a piece of road debris. All I had to do was tell the dealer “I hit a piece of road debris.” and they got me all fixed up.

Same here. Now I feel I can drive without apprehension. The 20’s were stressing me out :confused1: :D

Just saying most full coverage insurance plans cover stolen tires and rims.... maybe you did'nt run over potholes but your tires where stolen in the night? Then your coverage should cover them. Ask your insurance company. I mean sometimes when those crack heads steal wheels to pay for crack they don't notice the pot hole damage that was there.

When i bought my CTR it had one of those quick fix for nails and i didnt even notice until my tire pressure signal kept coming on. The dealer knew it had a fucked up tire but didnt tell me. I brought it in and they were in disbelief that i bought it like that.. smhh but the guy told me he was going to put that in as pothole because they arent gonna believe me if i said that i bought the car like that so i think potholes are covered under the package

Honda MSRP for a single CTR wheel is $1,306.99. Going price from the discount Honda parts places is ~$950 + shipping. Not sure what price you might get if you ordered one through the parts department at the dealership where you bought your car.

Pretty much a no-brainer to buy low mile used OEM wheels/tires (if you want to stay stock). You can probably get a nice set from as low as $1,000 (local pickup) to $1,200 or more depending on shipping cost. And that will include a set of OEM tires that cost ~$1,200 from Tire Rack.

Did you buy the tire and wheel package after your wheels got bent? Or were you referring to wheels on a different vehicle?
