MHO i've only come across 1, maybe 2 aftermarket wheels that are nicer than the stock 18"s. Unless you're really really into performance - don't mess with success!!

Just did the exact same thing
Spun out with TCS off, end came around and went up over the curb.
Rear suspension is definitely FUBAR'd, wheel is now bent in significantly.
Really surprised by how quickly I swapped ends, very dumb on my part.

Thank God! Those are the most hideous wheels I've seen on an 8.

Just got my estimate back, total is 3k parts and labor. Panels, body work, one wheel and suspension parts. Baron how did yours turn out?
