if those are Sport Edition rims, Posted by geoguy [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Tirerack wheels for 98CSE + Michelin Xalto tires, Virginian, Sun, 29 Oct 2006 05:12:04 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I bought two sets last year, used as winter rims on a Subaru & a Volvo. Nokian tires mounted on both sets (WR for the Volvo, RSI for the Subaru). Finish was ok on the outer surface of the 6-spoke rims I put on the Volvo, but I bought some silver wheel spray paint & touched up several spots (from the back side) that were never painted. My wife's 5-spoke rims were ok, in terms of being fully painted.
Also had a little difficulty getting good balancing done on both sets of rims/tires. Dynamic balancing didn't cut it, but road-force balancing fixed the vibration. Not sure if the balancing issue was due to the rims or tires. Overall I would say the rims were ok, especially given the low price.
