      I pounded my rim back into something that will probably roll, but never balance out good again.

      So I guess I'll go to my buddies shop tomorrow and swap one of the tires over.

      When are you getting the alignment done?.

      As soon as I can afford one. This wheel repair, just robbed that fund.

      Are these rims Hub-centric? If so I wouldnt want to grind the hub, but maybe to have a full size spare available.

      I went to my buddies shop and dismounted the good tire from the civic rim and went to mount it on the repaired rim..... well it was just to ****ed up so I ran accross town and caught this GM parts yard just before it closed and bought the last $45 dollar take-off they had.

      I got it mounted and balanced and am back to square one.

      Now to get the alignment done.. See my other thread for alignment questions.
