I have to disagree - if you are perfectly happy with your rims, have no intention of changing them, then they are damaged through no fault of your own making, why should you be faced with having to spend additional money from your own pocket, even simply to replace with the same type (if available)?This is not a question of the value on the used resale market, but of the incurred out of pocket expense to replace something the user had no intention of replacing!If someone dents your fender in the parking lot on your 10 year old NSX (with 8K miles in pristine condition) then by your logic, it is not reasonable that the offender pay full compensation for a brand new fender & paint job - after all, the damaged part was 10 years old - surely past its useful life? I think not!![This message has been edited by D'Ecosse (edited 10 September 2002).]
