Default Cool. BTW, the tires worked out, and it turns out ALL of my reps are bent!!!!! Now I can dump the

set of AVUS and just use the reps for the winter. Remember me bitching about not buying your reps because of one or two of them being bent? I can't really complain though because I got all four plus S0-3's for $800 shipped. And I don't know if I bent them or the guy who sold them to me.

And yeah, next time I'm down in the Island I'd love to "tryerout!"

Default Holy crap man... sounds a lot like my Sportec story...

The seller swore up and down that they were fine, and all 4 were "egged". Totally sucks, because that type of bend is very hard or impossible to fix. If your wheels are bent on the inner lip like my replicas were you should be able to fix them at a good wheel repair shop. FYI, I had a really bad experience with my wheel refinishing at Wheels America. They actually fixed the two bent wheels fine, but the paint job was horrendous and I had problems with how they re-did the bead on the rims the first and second times. Good luck getting things fixed.

I'm glad the S-03's worked out for you at least. Sorry again about the plug on the one. That was my mistake and I feel bad about it.
