Are these OEM wheels? If so most of them are curbed due to the dealership sending the cars through their automated wash and the guide rails for the tires scrape the rims. My dealership completely ruined my OEM tires by doing this.

Yes they are OEMs. Everyone I find is flawless car, until I look at the wheels. Wheels arent a deal breaker at all, but I am now plotting if I pick a car with them, how much does it cost to fix?

Usually 500-800$ depending where you are siZe of wheels and what you want done

Per wheel? or all four corners?

I feel like it might be better to just buy new wheels at that price.

You could always list the curbed set for sale and buy a new set. The price gap might be similar to what you would pay to refinish. I would rather have brand new wheels instead of refinished wheels...

$125-150 is what I've seen to have my 220's repaired and powdercoated

Some items cost 10/10 but it costs 7/10 to fix it and you end up just buying new of X item.

Per wheel, I presume.

My dealership has a guy who comes in to refinish wheels. I curbed a ZCP and he fixed it for $125. It came out great.

I bought a used one with rash on 3 corners. When I found out it was about $150.00 per corner to fix, I bought new wheels.

Price difference will be over $1,000.00 so it's all about preference. I had 220's on mine and liked them OK but the new Vorsteiners are such an upgrade...
