Favor - Can I borrow a wheel/tire for testing? ATL

Sunny D · 11-10-2023, 07:58 AM

Hi everyone,

Have a weird favor to ask... does anyone have a front wheel/tire I can borrow for a few hours? I've been fighting an issue with vibration on my F80, and, I think it is a bad rim. Only way to confirm is putting something else on the car.

Happy to hook someone up with a bottle of booze in exchange!

Thanks

I'd recommend taking the questionable wheel to someplace like Rimguard and have them check it for balance and "true". They can then repair it while you wait - had this done on my car and it was well worth it.
