Default Wheels and roundness!

How many think I'll find a set of stock aluminum wheels at Carlisle this month? and would you buy a set of wheels from a vendor or from a yard itself? I'm worried about getting a bad set. Thank for your feedback. :cheers:

Default Re: Wheels and roundness! (killain)

Two years ago I bought a set of wheels for my 74. Didn't have any problems what so ever. No rust and NOT out of round. Brought them home, bead blasted them, repainted them to original color. I mounted and balanced the tires with out any problems or excessive use of wheel weights. A month or so later I sold them to buy a different set of wheels. Take your time looking and I am sure you will be able find a set in good condition.
