Default Stock wheel replacement

Hope this question is in the in right place. Wife found the curb in our 13 AWD. I want to replace at least one, maybe two wheels. 525 each at the local dealer. Is there a forum supporter here that gives discounts on stock parts? If I recall we had one but they no longer can sell at a discount or something like that.

Unless the rim is cracked, most dealers offer a repair service. Rim will look like new again for about $129 a rim. I had one done a while back and it came out just like new.

Just search around eBay and you might find a wheel or wheel set for cheaper than going to the dealer

Like praetor said. They can do amazing things with wheel refinishing these days. If you don't trust the dealer, tire shops usually have repair shops they use in case of a mounting accident. This happened on my BMW, and they did a great job on two wheels. I don't know how much they would have charged as it was free due to their error.

I've used the company in the past and had good luck with them. They have five of the Lexus wheels in stock for $218 (with exchange, I think):
