Default Bad News!!

I just took a trip from Orlando to SC and turns out I had a Stud sheared off before I took the car over. The dealership didn't catch it. I didn't catch it until I was up here and it started vibrating. Ended up shearing another stud off up here. Slightly damaged the rim. Hopefully I can get them to replace the set instead of just one, so I can pick up a set of Cobra 17" or Saleen 18" from a guy up here. What do you guys think about the rim choices? Which one will be better Performance first and Looks second?

IMO, I don't like the saleens...I like the cobra's, but only on cobra's. But if those were my choices I would definatlely go with the cobra's.

Dealerships are cheap they'll just replace the one rim dont get your hopes up. If I were you id say they were custom wheels and they cost hella $$$ then they might replace all of them and go cobras or saleens since they get em for cheaps!! yes CHEAPS!! saleensZ! all the way!!
