Consumer Description

THE METAL RIMS WHICH HOLD THE TIRES GET RUSTED DUE TO DESIGN. THIS IS A GREAT SAFETY CONCERN. THE RIMS ARE DESIGN SUCH WAY THAT THEY HOLD WATER, RAINWATER, AND SALTY ICE/SNOW INSIDE THE RIMS AND NEVER DRAIN OUT; WHICH CAUSES THE WHEELS TO RUST, AND COULD CAUSE A SAFETY CONCERN. THE RIMS/WHEELS SHOULD HAVE BEEN RUST PROOF IN FIRST PLACE. THESE RIMS/WHEELS ARE NOT, AND ON THE CONTRARY HOLD WATER INSIDE ALONG THE OUTER EDGE.
