Default 19 inch 2 piece wheels what are they?

These wheels came on this car and I might need to replace one of them as I curbed it, so I know someone can identify what year and who made them.Thanks Halvin

Can you get it straightened and/or refinished? Might be cheaper...

Those Gemballas sure look like my wheels although I dont know if mine are 3 piece. I have the bent one in the shop right now but I dont know if they can straighten it. my car has some similar mods as yours. the guy who sold it said it had a GT3 tech art frnt and rear bumpers and sport exhaust it had lowering springs but I had sport springs installed. It also has red racing seats and dvd player( which is crazy. )Thanks for posting the pics. I will update when I get the wheel back.

If yours is 3 piece, you can generally tell by examining the barrel for a seam where the outer rim attaches

Try these guys http://www.wheelcollision.com/.

Sent all four of my 19" Champion Motorsport Monolite RG5s to them. Two of the four wheels were bent (I slammed a curb a few months back). At $1250 PER WHEEL new, I wasn't about to buy a new one. Besides straightening, all four were stripped, polished and clear coated. Bill came out around $1500, including shipping to and from. Ask for Ed.

They might be RH Alurad or Artec.

I am in Oregon so I really didnt want to ship but but if the local guys cant do it I may need to, it might take months to get them back or drive what they give me and wait for winter. Thanks I will check this out.

The wheels are 3 peice and are Artec, I am going to call and find out the cost of replacing the outer lip or have it straightened. The lesson here is hast makes wast as I should do my home work. I had some trouble with that in High school! Thanks for the input. Halvin

I am beginning to wonder if that is a Northwest thing! That sounds like someone else we know that lives in the Seattle area. He seems to get distracted by "shiny things."
