ok........how much do you think that'll be? anyone know any in Wisconsin? also i was just going to complain to the dealership (the associate doesn't care) they always fix the problem. possiblt new rims....?

Once you get a quote, check ebay and see if it's cheaper just to buy a new rim. On a side note, this looks precisely like the rub marks my friend has on his rims after he went into the car wash. His tires were not lined up perfectly and the guide that puts you in alignment with the guide rubbed against his wheels.
