Found these on craigslist today. I'm very tempted! But how much to fix the one? is it worth it? I'm not in to black rims on a black GS, but for $250, not bad for another set of spare 20's

That could be fixed, and for $250 sounds reasonable. Buy it before I do. Aha! jk

I'd probably just buy a new wheel. I don't think it would be expensive since it is a generic wheel. I would question the quality of the wheels after seeing the damage though. I have never seen a lip chip off like that.

Thats not even worth fixing IMHO, I would replace that wheel if you do purchase this set.
