btw, I think it is over $200 to fix a bad bad one like that. May not be worth it. I had 2 wheels that bent the lip back around and touched the spoke, and $175 later, it looked new.

is it just me, or is the hole for the valve stem in a different place than the pic where the rim was fubard?


in the first pic where its messed up the valve stem is below the broken part, and here , assuming the larger part is the part your saying got fixed, the valve stem is above that part....

not calling you out or saying your lieing just curious
