Thread: Is this a good deal.

Hello, so i found these

18" Verde rims 5x114.3

18" Verde Kaos wheels, which were painted black and only have one slight bend.. "5x115 18x8 38mm offset and has a 74.1mm bore"

He will trade me my ugly ass snowflake wheels in great cond. with goodyear tires, all have plenty of life.

His wheels need 3 tires but i would end up just buying 4 used tires.

They arent really the wheels i would choose, but theyre alot better than snowflakes.

Thanks

for stock wheels trade? depends on what wheels u have, and condition they are in!

I have snowflakes with plenty of tread life. That's why i want to get rid of my stockers so bad.

A slight bend? The wheel would not be true anymore thus causing a vibration...

Something to consider, but i guess i could bend it back with a rubber mallet then get them balanced... ?

Well if it's aluminum it does not take to heat well, high possibility of cracking. It's not that easy you need to take it to a shop that can repair rims, but when you bend them you ma as well just scrap them.

Damn, ok well i will ask him if he drove on them and if they vibrated.

Thanks.

No problem, just making sure you don't get ripped off, cause i had a set with a slight bend in it, at 40mph or so it would shake like crazy.

He told me he has driven on all 4 and had no problems..

^if anything, take a ride in his car. make sure to go on the freeway! if all good, its up to you? the wheels u have now are pretty fugly tho.

Yeah that's probably a good idea, but here in maryland we usually dont get very much snow. Since i cant see for myself that they dont vibrate, becuase the tires are all worn out, i will just save up some and keep looking i guess.

Thanks
