Thread: I just ran into a curb with my car and the repair shop my rims are damaged?

He says I will only be able to pick them up at a salvage yard and they should cost around 10 bucks, true? Are rims the same thing as wheels? Do I just call the salvage yard up and tell them the size of my tire and they can have it ready for me to pick up?

Salvage yard will also need to know the make, model and year of the vehicle to get the correct number of lugs and span for the wheels.

Wheels is another name for rim.

Price may vary, but for a standard size steel rim, $10 is in the ballpark. Off-size rims will be more.

You can get them at a salvage yard and they will have them all ready off . you can also check with a used tire store. they sometimes keep rims when someone has a better rim put on there car.
