Default Turning Radius............

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/137854/dsc02375.jpg"></center><p>I have had my RS4 since December and only have 4000 miles on it. One thing I realized is t hat the turning radius on this car is unbelievable. I made a terrible mistake letting my friend drive the car. After making a U turn I heard a scrapping metal sound against a concrete curb. One of the worst sounds I have ever heard. I was physically ill.

I wanted to see if anyone wants to purchase my scrapped rim. Everything is perfectly in tact just the wall of the wheels are scrapped.

Please let me know. It has been a terrible evening.

Buy a new wheel, get this one fixed and keep it as a spare.

Default That's just a little scrape. It's been a terrible evening? Come on, dry your tears Moneyman!

Where are you located? That wheel can be repaired for $120 and you'll never know the difference.

BTW, your friend is not liable for the wheel and you should not even think of making him pay. You let him drive the car becasue you wanted to show off your ride. just be happy that he didn't hit the front bumper.
