The car is at the garage and the wheels have only just been fitted today so ill need to get up and see in the flesh.

The only small problem is ive just had an ankle op so in in plaster at mo.

Should I remove this thread until I find out?

It's not the end of the world if it is flat spoted, One of my Speedline Corse had a flat spot just like that but on the inside took it to Speedwells in Birmingham and they straighten it up perfect all for £40.
Worth getting it looked at as they are really nice wheels and are getting quite rare now and the new batch that Compomotive are doing are £233.50 + vat each!!!

Best idea due to being in plaster my end is assume is a flat spot and list them as that, will take the 40 off asking price, really are stunning wheels and surely a bargain at that with adaptor nuts which cost me £50!!

People will still very reluctant to buy wheels with a damaged one even if it looks repairable as you just never know till someone has had a look at it.
I'd just wait till your leg is better mate then get it fixed.

Thanks

I understand your position mate with your ankle and I am in no rush,

You need to find out if it is a flat spot before spending any doller on getting it repaired.

What tyres are on the rims ?

Would your split the tyres from the rims ?

and keep us posted on the flat spot issue mate, hopefully it will be ok

Thanks

no probs, the tyres that are on the wheels are 4x matching nearly new falkens ( the new model) i could be persuaded to leave them on if you would prefer with tyres at extra cost?
