sigh halloween SUCKED

okay so friday im going out to a halloween party with some friends. i argue with one of my friends about who should drive since im the one who drives all the time. i end up driving because it was getting too late and i didnt want to stay there talking about it, plus they promised me food and a full tank lol. so i am driving and talking and everything is going fine until......BOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!! i run over a big *** rock (didnt even look like a rock until i hit it and got out the car to check.) i drive my car to a shopping center to fully check the damages and to my surprise my tire is completely flat! (the air leaked out of the valve stem as i was driving. o it gets worst......my friends and i disconnect the sub and pull everything out my trunk so that i can access my spare. at this point its raining HELLA hard in the dark cold. then i forget where i place my key for my lugs on my rim so then i couldnt get my tire off and had to call AAA. the tow trunk guy comes and is a complete ***. he starts talking about how i should have gone with the STI and if not that an evo at least and was being a straight dick about it. finally he tows my car back to my place. the next morning i go back out to find my key (more light now) and i find it. i take off the rim, put my spare on then venture out to buy a new tire. i went to pep boys to get new tires and they point this out to me. . . .

a friend of mine just told me that i could have this repaired, do you guys know if something like that would be super expensive or should i just focus on buying new rims?

yea bro i dont know if its your computer but everyone else i know can see them...ill look into it though

but yea i would just buy a single rim, however i dont know what kind of rims i have cause i bought them off of someone awhile ago. this guy at a local rim shop is saying that it would cost me 150 to get these rims fix then dig this, its a rims shop that doesnt even sell tires!!!! so then i would have to go somewhere else to buy tires.....

Those wouldn't have worked for him anyways, different bolt pattern.

There was a wheel repair guy up at my office a couple of weeks ago, picking up his business cards, so I had him look at the minor curb dings in my wheels. He said they'd be at least $100, and these are minor dings that would probably require the wheels to be removed but are not cracked. So yeah, just buy another rim. Not a big deal in the long run.
