my friend a while back went to school in boston and where the school was was a bad area..and he had a jeep with phat rims on it and he parked it and the car was stripped and burned.....now i just bought new rims and i was wondering how much the stock rims and tires cost from toyota for the gt the alloys...my dad brought it up to me that my insurance wouldnt cover my rims if they are stolen unless i include them on my insurance...my friend owns a body shop and deals with insurance all the time and he says that the insurance company would rather give me back aftermarket rims instead of buying the ones from toyota becasue usually trhe stock rims are waaaayyyyy overpriced, and the aftermarjket rims are sometimes cheaper....so what im asking is how much the stock rims would be form toyota just incase my rims get jacked like my freind..luckily i live in a good area..i felt bad for him..
Thanx

Thats not what hes saying. he saying he would have to make a claim for stock rims if his aftermarket rims got jacked, in how much the insurance company would give him... I think?

nope you read right. all 4 were stolen and the car was left on rocks. it was even a nice one with the action package. dont forget the tires too those were $104 each. and to top it off they stole a 4 runner too. i guess they didnt have enough room for the rims and they neeeded a car to load them into.

well what i was asking was basically how much stock rims are..because if i ever got my aftermarket roims stolen they might be chepaer to buy then the stock rims.....and my friend said the insurance company would rasther pay me for my aftermarket rims instead casue they would bve cheaper for them.....
my dad brought up that if my aftermarlket rims arent covered under insurasnce they wont replace them if they are strolen..

as well as gsr, type r, even the gs integra mesh ones, the z24 cavaliers also get their rims jacked alot.
Look at it this way the only car that I am aware of that has a ****ed up bolt pattern like a celica is the vw's. Any others?

Or you could have a smart insurance agent that will tell you to find a place like this to replace your rims...
