Replace One Rim

If i were to replace one rim due to curb rash with a brand new one, would it be noticable that one was new? or should i look at buying a set of 4 new?

Shouldn't be noticeable at all. Just make sure you don't mix polished wheels with chrome. There will be a noticeable difference then.

Search the forum, this is a frequent topic.

I had these guys repair one of my painted rims that I curb scraped one time.

A lot cheaper than buying a new rim and can't even tell.
