Default Help! I need to know a good source for new wheels/tires!

I'm gonna be sick I think...

Today has been crappy at work and thought I would actually go out for lunch and wouldn't you know the curb jumped out and hit my passenger side rear tire when I was backing in. Caused some real nice curb rash and peeled a little sliver of the tire off that snugs the rim.

Since I bought my C6 used, the rims look mostly like new with some minor blemishes here and there but my mistake tops them all.

Does anyone know where I can find good deals on wheel and tire packages or should I just look at replacing the one rim/tire?

I'm sure the wheel and tire are not damaged enough to require immediate replacement, but it's a sore thumb for sure.

Thanks for any recommendations..

Try Ben Bermudez at Wheels Boutique. He is a forum sponsor and pretty knowledgeable about vette fitments and wheel styling.

Check the C6 for sale/wanted section. I'm sure that there are others that have messed up a rim or two and would like to sell their remaining wheels, that are not damaged.
