Bought some rims off of kijji in edmonton without tires and everything appeared fine. Rims looked great except for a few dings here and there.
Got them mounted on new tires and drove back. Noticed some wobble on the highway at higher speeds so I brought them to Urban expressions (great customer service by the way). They squeezed me in without an appointment.
Turns out that a local wheel store sold me the wrong hub ring that caused my 2 of my tires to lose two bolts.
In ADDITION they told me that 3 out of 4 of my rims are bent (although not noticable) that effects the balalncing.
For the people that have fixed rims due to bends would you got Alberta Wheel repair or Andre at alloy wheel repair. They are mentioned on a few prevous threads but hoping to hear from someone who has used both. Pretty much not looking to get raped in price but also require quality work.
