They have seen this with many replicas and I can not expect much after paying for a fraction of the price. So I do not recommend purchasing Replica wheels from the company OE Wheels they are a ebay retailer. Make sure you talk to someone who will personally examine the wheels before they ship it.....and always purchase insurance.
Good info. is it the lip of the rim or the whole rim that is bent?

I've always had good experiences with Radial Tire. BTW- Ye Olde Wheels is an awesome shop- Wheel Worx deals mostly with dealerships, so they aren't even set up to take Credit Cards as payment- only $$ or cashier's checks.

You oughta try and make it to the DC Meet on May 13th. if you're free that Saturday, you're only an hour north of here!
