Great deal on wheels (Maybe)
I bought a set of tires and wheels from a less than reputable Forum member. The tires were great but one of the wheels (FRONT) has a low spot on it causing some steering wheel vibration. At about 45 is seems that I can start feeling it and at 70 is noticable on most road surfaces. These are Ruff 18/19 inch wheels in near perfect condition, hardly any miles on them and had only the one set of tires mounted. All the wheels look like new and three of the wheels run perfect. Specifically the one wheel does not wobble or anything like that but has a slight low spot according to the balancer. I have been told by a couple of people that there are companies that fix things like this but I have not checked. I want to sell the whole set for $300 plus shipping to anyone who can use them. I have all four center caps that go with them.
Unlike the guy who I bought them from, I will fully and honestly answer any questions so that whoever buys them knows exactly what they are buying.

Dented wheels
There's a company that did great work on one of my right front wheel on my 2003. I took the wheel off tire and all, took up in my DD. The company is http://wheelcollision.com/ and they did a fabulous job on my wheel, refinishing and repainted 50th Anniversary wheels.

There is a shop in OKC called Wheel Works that can do wonders with damaged or bent wheels.

I was told that there are several companies that specialize in this sort of thing and work on wheels off cars involved in collisions. Thanks for the site... whoever buys them may well be able to use it.

Mr. Bill,,, I am still happy with a 18/19 setup, the issue with these has nothing to do with them being 18/19's. The ones I have on the car now are 18/19's.
No Pay pal.... $300 plus shipping.
Oh2fun,,,, I did not know the guy was "Less than reputable" until I found that he misrepresented the wheels. Of course had I known I would not have bought them in the first place. I am making sure that any buyer from me knows the status of the wheels.

At least you could of answered my questions seeing I was the first that said I might want them and gave me the chance to decide when the questions were answered.
O well.

Bill, I answered responses in the order I received them. You made the statement of $300 shipped (they were priced at $300 plus shipping) and inquired about Pay Pal at 4:58. I answered that inquiry at 5:31
I next received an inquiry from "Triple Black C4" at 5:12 which I responded to via pm and at his request a phone call. This resulted in the sale. The next question you asked regarding sizes was posted at 5:33. I answered the questions you asked before answering questions from "Triple Black C4". He was simply the fist to buy them. When I was next on the computer I posted that they were sold
