bent rim
Friday, August 11, 2006 11:47 PM
Ok guys...

I got my tires on... BARUM 225-40-18 and they look outstanding on my MotegiFF6's. However, one of the rims is bent, slightly, and cannot really see the wobble unless you are looking for it.

Makes me upset, and knowing that it is bent, I want to fix it. Is there a way that I can fix it myself? It looks like the previous owner curbed something and it just bent from that...

I was reading on the net about how to fix they have to heat it up and spin it so it reforms to its original shape. Not sure... I don't know too much about these things. People tell me there is a place here in town that can fix it.. but not sure.

Any help?

Take it to a professional wheel repair shop. Call around and you should be able to find one.
