Dinged Wheel

scraped a curb pulling into parking garange.
Stock wheel for a '12 2SS - any suggestions on "fixing/repairing" this other than costly replacement?

Depends how bad you did the wheel in. Dealerships usually have wheel repair guys that they can call in. I would also consider searching for one on google that's local. A repair will always be cheaper than a replacement.

I had mine powder coated after curbing a front wheel. There are company's that will come to your house and fix it. Id recommend alloy wheel in carnegie. If you want to replace it I have one front in perfect condition for sale if thats what you need. It's midnight silver.

My rear is actually worth something not in pieces to help offset the cost of a 12 bolt -- that's the ONLY reason I'm trying to keep it in tact It's also easier to sell my wife on it: "I'll make money on this rear swap, Jen!"

But hey, if it busts, you can be damn sure it will be time to upgrade!
