Buying curb rashed wheels... worth it?

Postby Jordan.k » Mon Apr 11, 2016 1:08 am

Hey just looking for some advice before I buy a set of used wheels.

Looking at buying these v7 sti wheels and seller had let me know that most of the wheels are rashed and one wheel has a slight buckle.

I know things like this can be repaired but is it worth it.
Agreed on $400 pending inspection.

Also noticed what looks like a chip out of the sidewall in one of the tires.

Is it worth buying? or just wait for a clean set

Cheers

Yes repairs are cheap but my worry would be the damage you cant see not what you can

Takes a lot to buckle a wheel :wink:
