Need to borrow a set of wheels while my wheels get repaired - VA / MD / DC

[aliusa]

Hello fellow members,
Like the title says, I will be getting my wheels repaired (getting all four wheels refinished) from Ye Olde Wheels in Maryland. I spoke with a guy there and he said it can take a maximum of three weeks to complete the job.

In the interim, I will need some wheels with tires that I can put on my car. I do not drive my car regularly (it's a weekend car) and if I borrow your wheels I will not drive it at all.

I don't care if these are winter wheels or non M5 wheels...I just need a set of wheels so I can park my car.

Your help would be greatly appreciated. If you think you can help, please PM me. I am in Northern Virginia.

Thanks.

Why not just get some jackstands?

How about some see-ment blocks ??

Going through blocks or jack stands is too painful. If I have a set of extra wheels, I would just go to a local tire shop and ask them to swap the wheels. Plus I do not have a jack for my car. My other car is an SUV so the hydraulic jack won't work (too high to go underneath the car).

But thanks for all the advises

Sorry, looks like you are out of luck....buy a jack 49.00 bucks a low jack, they make them....remove the jack wheels, saddle height is 3" pleanty of room.......or forget the whole project ??
