So I just had the unpleasant experience of really scraping my front wheel while parking. I have never done this before with any car. I did buy all the warranties with the car. Has anyone had to replace a wheel? Cost?

Yeah, probably not a discussion of warranties, insurance perhaps but not a warranty. I looked these up for a friend that was interested in getting a set some time back and I believe they were $459/ea. There are wheel specialty shops that can make a wheel that isn't bent at the hub, look like new at about half that price. Downside is you're at the mercy of the shop doing the repair and what do you run while the wheel is being prepared? It's a tough spot.

Check with Detroit Wheel and Tire. They only deal with OEM wheels. They would send you a refurbished wheel like yours, and you send your old wheel back, no downtime.
