Default @#$#$ chinese wheels

Time for new wheels. Last year had a mishap with a pothole(another old guy ran me off the road) doin 60 on think it was I-4, coming home from satellite beach. Well last night my tire sensor indicated i only had 15lbs of air, but i got out hit the tire an compared to the others and it looked fine. Went to work this morning put 2 runs of air, then took it to tire kingdom. Upon pulling the wheel off, the inner lip was cracked 3/4-1". So close to paying off some bills and actually having money to save.

I have people telling me to just find a replacement(vendor I bought them from on corvette forum no longer is around/hes also shady and I know why), but think this is my sign to go with all black since a local person had decided to clone my car since everyone in this town knows about my car.

Decisions Decisions..all black or black/machined face....

Wow Corey, it seems as if your car is in the shop more than on the street. . That can't be any fun for you or your pocketbook.
