Make sure they replace them with new one's. Dont be soft and act undecided if they bring up fixing them. Demand that you get a new one while you have the damaged one in site.

That's pretty *** they would attempt to pass it off as your fault and lie about it. Show's how they deal with things like this. I would bring it up too.

Get a new rim...

No, don't have them fix it. Chances are they will do a half-assed job and try to talk you into dealing with it.

Either get a new rim or ask for a discount on a set of HFP rims if that is what you would like.

Same exact thing happened to my friend. He had to speak with the general manager and after a week of complaining they finally replaced his aftermarket rim . If it is not documented on their part that that already existed, you win.

They obviously cant drive that car without F-ing it up so why would you trust them to fix a rim. Get a new one and dont take no for an answer.

They just absolutely ruined your wheel. Make sure you get them to admit they did it (preferably in writing), then take that and the pictures to Honda of America if they won't give you a new one straight up.
