kia sc told me that all my rim bengkok, repair cost RM110 each wheel, total RM440.

i go other tyre shops ask around of repair cost, found about RM80~RM100 each wheel.
then i found a shop keep more than dozen of forte wheel, is trade in from other forte owner who change their wheel.

'exchange' my wheel to other forte wheel, personally pick some of it still with sticker on it, total damage for 4 wheel RM350, no more bengkok.

let me know if u want the address. is not at jb, but not far, at nusa bestari.

Yeah, I did the same thing. Thank to brilliant road design, I just hit my tyre closed to road barrier. Not serious though. Repair = RM 70 1 wheel. It's not out of shape, but edge was scratched. Exchange = RM 100 and it looks really new, might as well.
