So I've got 2 of the wheels on my '24 Civic EX sporting some nice curb scrapings. It looks like there are 3 options:

  • Have the existing wheels "re-machined" for $185 each.
  • Replace with new genuine Honda wheels 42700-T20-A92 for $312.95 each.
  • Go with "replacement" wheels from someplace like Wheelership for $178.75 each.

Don't really want to spend $312 each, so the question is (for roughly the same cost) would you re-machine the originals, or get the new knock-offs?

Yes, I would personally refinish them and keep the original wheels. $185.00 sounds reasonable to me for repairing curb rash and refinishing the entire wheel.
