Need to borrow a set of wheels for an hour
 
I think my two rims are bent again. I need to borrow a set of wheels from someone to see if my wheels are the culprit. I'm almost positive but I need to know so I don't waste 1g on new wheels. Can anyone help me out in the NY long island area?

Damn! I would totally help you..I have a set of 20inch 87s in storage. But I'm stuck at school.

Good luck finding someone!

And to anyone considering, Justin is a great guy and will not screw up your wheels..

If you're willing to make the trip down to PA, I have a set you can use to test....

Hey JST! I still have my winter shoes on. I'm an hour away from the city, straight down the parkway. I don;t have fancy wheels like yours, I just have 18's style 69 on busted Michy energy, but it should get the job done. Let me know.

The easiest way to confirm is to spin them.....with tires off.
When bent, you can see the ~hop~ when you spin them.

I've got some 19"s if you want to come down to Crooklyn

This forum is really a good place and good people. I'm shocked so many people would let u borrow a set of.wheel but nice to know good people out there.

I got a full set of 17's. I'm in Y.O, but I'm always willing to burn the condensation on my engine early in the morning on weekends. Let me know.

In case you don't find wheels;
Tire shops with the more recent balancing machines that turn very slow, could see if there is something bent while the rim turns.
Or you could turn the wheel by hand on that machine and install a ruler or a piece of metal fixed, and see if the wheel turns straight.
