Rims question
I have a question guys, I have a 2002 base model with what APPEARS to be factory forged thinspokes and recently bought a pair of rims off a 1998 that appear to be speedline thinspokes, Are there any ways to determine if this is true.
The 1998 rims look like a spun cast, as they have some grooves on the inside of the barrel and the 2002 rims appear much better quality with no machining marks visible.
If they are speedline, are they truly CAST, and can they be widened or do I have to desecrate my (guess, forged) 2002 thinspoke rims????
