    Uh, does anyone know a good place to fix wheel rash? I would go aftermarket but what the hell...I like the sleeper look. Also, i'm going to use " GERMAN MOTOR TECH" (based near buford highway or something..) to install my new wheels when I get them.
    You think they can notice any defects on my rims before installing them? I think I might have messed something up by driving down this hill too fast and not judgeing the angle and messed up something.

    Also today (mar 25) I was driving 85 South and was it really that windy? The trees didn't seem to move much but it seemed my car did..

    What does balanceing tires really do...?

    will add weights to your wheel so that it has close to evenly distributed weight... will reduce wobble at high speeds

    Is this needed for stock rims, but new tires?

    I got my wheels fixed at Metro Wheels & Accessories. They did a great job, and were affordable and fast. The wheels ballance perfectly with almost no weights. A+ Metro Wheels & Accessories
