I bought some circuit 8's off him, and there was some things he didnt tell me about the tires and sizes and such and how they were not in the best shape. Well they didnt fit my car with the tires, so i sold them for the same price that i bought them for. I sold them to a local guy and now he has called and told me that they are bent. I dont want to get fucked and have to pay him for this nick guy's **** up. I AM REALLY PISSED. Anyone with info please let me know. a phone number, anything. I know he gave it to me in an IM on here once, but i dont have it anymore... any way to go back further in your IM history? PLEASE HELP

let me ask this...the guy i sold them too said that he was putting new tires on and when he spun them on the machine it told him they were pretty well off balance, he told me this is cuz the wheels are bent...is that right? he said u couldnt notice until it was on the machine spinning

here nick, i noticed you started posting again..... READ!

Pretty much all wheels are "off balance" by themselves. Unless you're paying big bucks, they're just like this. Same thing with tires- no tire is true. Why do you think you have to stick wheel weights on after you mount a tire?

If the rim is bent, they should use a runout gauge and see how out of true it is. Then, if it'll be cheaper than buying a new wheel, send it to a wheel refurbishing shop and they can straighten it. But since the C8's are pretty inexpensive wheels, I'm going to say that a new wheel is in order.

i think that this nick guy is to blame for YOUR beef with him (Nick). The person you sold the wheels to has beef with you. So it's now your responsability to take care of the guy you sold the wheels to. you shoulodn't have sold them if you weren't willing to take that risk.

did i know they were bent? NO....i didnt even drive for a day with them on my car. Its retarded to say its my fault. Not like i could have sold them back to nick. Yea that guy has beef with me, but I still think its Nick's responsibility in the end.

i believe hes responding in 3rd person to the dude who sold you the wheels. hes not calling you retarted. fyi.

tim anto

if you bought the rims first off without asking if they were bent..YOUR fault, and if you didnt ask for some kind of proof...YOUR fault for being gullible and believing NICK....

but did you look at it this way? you didnt notice they were bent... so how do you expect NICK to know they were bent? maybe he didnt know...

BigZ88

if the are on your car u should be able to feel it.....and ok, when someone tells you they are in good condition except for a punctured tire, you will more than likely not ask if they are bent.
Ok, lets say he didnt know....well i didnt know, and the guy wants his money back. I paid some bills, dont have that money. In reality it should be Nick giving the money....

pervytheclown

so you did drive around with them on..

then to negate your point, you did drive around on them. AND sell them to someone...

Be the bigger man, Square up with the guy you sold the wheels to. He should not be punish for the deal between you and aonick. I am not sure what went on between you an Aonick, but just be honest, and keep in mind that when you buy used stuff that's the risk we all take.

Yea, i pulled out of the drive way, and right back in....i rubbed the hell out of my fenders pulling out....not far enough or enough speed to feel anything.

BigZ88

you see, i'd really like to be able to do that...but unless i get a loan from somewhere, i wont be able to do this. I said it above, i paid off some bills with the money.
