Problem with rims
I purchased a set of ASA JH8 rims in black from tire rack.
Upong inspection, all rims have some sort of paint imperfection. There are minor bubbles and indentations (sort of like dimples in the paint). I can live with the imperfections since they are winter wheels. However, being the perfectionist that I am, I would like to have perfectly painted wheels.
Should I take tirerack's discount of $160? Instead of paying $780 for the set, they are willing to make me pay $620 for the set. This is a savings of 20%.
I know the rims are cheap, but they are still $780 for a set of 4. Any other guys have problem with their paint when they bought cheap rims?
Should I keep them or not?
thanks

I bought the same rims. I got 18 inch ones for 160 each, but not in black, and did not notice any imperfections, but i didnt really look closely. I figure the wheels are going to get dirty through the sand and salt and I would definately take a 20% discount if i had minor imperfections. But that's me..good luck with what you decide.
