Hey Everyone,
So here's the story: I took my car into local Audi Dealership about a month ago to get a few things fixed and they said I had a bent rim (possibly 2).
So tonight, I take off each of my rims and visually inspect them and they appear to be fine. I finally take off the front passenger side rim (which I KNOW and was told by Audi that it was bent) and it appears to be fine as well.
I know if me looking at it with my own eyes am not able to detect a bend, probably a picture for you guys would not help either. But I thought I would give it a shot anyway. Here's is the "supposed" bent rim:
Picture 1:

Picture 2:

I still plan on dropping them off tomorrow or Friday at the wheel repair shop to see what they say, but thought I'd see what you guys thought first. Thanks in advance everyone! =)

to balance them. probably easier/better with stick-on weights since you can put them on the inside and not just on the lip -- which fvcks up the lip anyway.
