My rims are like that too...I do not feel it when I drive.

I've got one rim the same way on the front of the rim, about the same size. I feel nothing either.

I have one like that too. It may vibrate just a little but it's fixable.
Bah... It's like everyone said..... :P
Oh No... My Rims ! - ANTHONYD - 05-13-2007
I have 2 rims like that.
No biggie.
Get the sucker fixed and your golden!

how did you manage to get them damaged on the inside of the rim? most curb damage i've seen have been on the outside.

really heh...im the opposite, all the dents and bends I see in my wheels are in the inside.
The bmws BBs wheels are pretty bad, hoping they can fix them up good.

ya I think this deal fell through anyways.. damnit....
guess Im buying new, I reall like Konig Troubles and they are pretty rare to come by a used set... :angry:
Thanks for all the help though... I was really hoping this woulda worked out..

as long as it's not center bent it's fixable

anyone know of a god plce to buy troubles for a decent price? everywhere I look is quoting me at $780 minimum without tires...normal for Canada I know but I can buy them in the states for $744 w/tires shipped... I just wouldnt mind supporting a Canadian dealer before I went that option though.
