wheels = rims. Basically call it like you want.

Specifically wheels, or rims if you prefer. Neither "tires" nor "tyres".
Alex, how much would you pay for front and rear with rotors and cush drive in good shape for racing? Forget cosmetically perfect, it's inconsequential. thanks! |

just my opinion.
what i would pay and what most people would sell them for do not line up. if the wheels are true, i would pay $200 for both without rotors or bearings. i believe if you replace a wheel, just spend the extra 20$ and replace the bearings at the same time. you wont regret it and at worst you have an extra set of used bearings. rotors are another story. i probably wouldn't buy a used rotor. that's just me though

Alex I trust your opinion a great deal, thanks for the feedback, esp. about the bearings, that's a great thing to remember.

& for gods sake, don't replace with OEM stuff. Find your local Motion Industries, & ask for NSK, SKF, or Fafnir bearings.

Hi, Jiggs. Funny you should mention it. I plan to have the four wheels you sold me powder-coated and, as I understand, I'll have to remove and may as well replace the bearings. Seeing you say that makes me think that some of these bearings are likely new. Should I try to salvage them?
