Consumer Description

ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE ORIGINAL RIMS REPLACED OR STRAIGHTENED AFTER NORMAL USE. THE REPAIR SHOP INFORMED ME THAT THE RIMS HAD MOST LIKELY BEEN BENT FROM HITTING A POTHOLE OR RAILROAD TRACKS. NO EXCESSIVE SPEED OR HAZARDOUS ROAD CONDITIONS, OR OFF ROAD CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCED BY THE VEHICLE. YET, DURING NORMAL WEAR AND USAGE THE ORIGINAL RIMS ON THE VEHICLE EASILY BEND CAUSING THE CAR TO SHAKE AND THE TIRES TO WEAR UNEVENLY. *TR
