Hello All,
I had a shake in the car and brought it in for service. Just got a call saying it's 4 bent rims, all of them are bent and that will be $3,090.
Obviously my jaw dropped. The car was picked up end of September, has sat for about 2 weeks, and been driven a bit over 6k miles. Not one flat or damage to rims. I am blown away by this and have to ask if anyone else with the 20" have bent rims?
As background, I am an extremely cautious driver to avoid pot holes. And I realize 20" is more prone to damage, but not this much this quick. My Audi with the sport rims has 1 bent rim in over 100k miles. And as reference, I am accustomed to large rims with low profiles tires...
Thanks all!
Same here. Noticed a wiggle, went to the tire shop, 3 out of 4 wheels are bent.. The technician has a Model 3 Performance, and for his vehicle he went to 19" wheels to get a little bit more rubber between the wheel and the road. Here's a pic of his setup, looks great. I'm not sure what to do as getting a whole new set of wheels and tires after 20K miles would be painful. Any advice?
