Check eBay. You can find sets on there periodically as well.

Man, if you trashed 3 rims hitting a curb, I would check your alignment and rear end. I hit a curb and snapped an axle!

Dude, not to add insult to injury but I am wondering the same thing. That must have been one hell of a banked shot!

Where I work, we have the 18" MM style wheels that were for the Mustang. These will fit the MM but the MM center cap will have to be modified to fit.

We have a set of 4.

I am going to find out a price from my boss on these.

You hit with one tire at an angle and it will spin you around to make contact with the others...

I am told my rear assy is toast too...axles, pinion, etc. I had FRPP ring gear and pinion in there with 4.10s. It may be time to upgrade to the Moser 31 splines...and a detroit tru locker.

Wow... this sounds similar to my accident! My car went sideways 90* so my right front hit the base of a tree which swung my rear end around and into the curb trashing 2 rims. Also trashed my air ride in the back and an axle and rear end. My car was almost totalled!

Same thing happened to me...I hit a curb and shifted everything in the back to the left...I dont know your situation but I called my insurance and they covered it.

Same happened to me. I have full coverage on mine and I appealed my surcharge for the accident and they cleared me of it because the roads were so bad that they didn't find me at fault.

I need to keep my mouth shut.
I hit a huge pot hole on the way home and now I need a new tire.
Hopefully the rim is okay.
Good luck with your repairs.
