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.

centre bent ? :unsure:

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.
