Speedline wheels

So, i have a set of speedline course wheels on the fd. They are the 3 piece model number 2310. I know that they are no longer in the us, but i was wondering if anyone knows where i can find a place to order new lips for the rear. I have curb rashed one of them beyond repair due to crappy roads. Any information that anyone has will help tons.

Thanks.

Have you tried to contact Speedline directly? I would think they'd be only ones to provide wheel components. I had a set of Speedlines on my VW Corrado. Nice wheels.

Yea man, i have all the number but i guess i forgot to type this in the beginning but i only have a cell phone and i think that the only numbers for them are in england and i cant do that. I am trying to get a calling car. But until then i was wondering if there were any other suggestions.

Edit: and yes they are f'in awesome wheels.

Yea that is what i was looking at and i called them, but i dont want to chance that they will be a little bit different then the front i would rather have the right ones, but that is a last resort.

Any more info.

You might try sending it to a wheel repair place. I've seen them do MIRACLES with wheels, even ones with chunks missing, bent damn near in half, etc.

Hit up Google - there's tons of wheel repair places out there.

Call a Acura, BMW or Mercedes dealer and ask them who they use. They will know the good ones in your area. I saw a guy in my area repair a pretty damaged NSX wheel and it looked brand new when he was done.

I know that I really fucked up my wheels, REALLY bad. Pinched it between a curb and my toe link, when I spun out and hit said curb at about 40 mph. it looked like I had hit it as hard as I could with a sledgehammer on the inner and outer lip. Plus all the extreme rash. Brought it to an old japanese dude, and 3 days and 90 bucks later, it looked better than the other 3. I bet I could cut my wheel in half and he could fix it. Now, its not gonna be as cheap as it is here, but I almost garuantee it can be fixed.

Maybe post a pic of it. We should be able to tell you if it is repairable.

Ive seen guys that really know how to repair rash make terrible looking wheels look brand new again. Usually costs less than 100 bucks per wheel, I think average around here is like 50-60 bucks.
