================================
Let me clarify a little bit here. I got offered a set of wheels for a
really cheap price but the owner said that they had been worked on by a
machinist who drilled too deep and had to reweld them with aluminum alloy to
bring them back into proper size specs.
I do not have these wheels and this guy has been trying to dump them for
quite a while and the price finally dropped low enough to raise my eyebrows.
So, I thought I'd toss out the question and find out everyones opinion on
the subject before I actually bought them.
Thanks guys, I'll pass on the bargain wheels.
See you on course.

You jump in front of my car When you know all the time
That 90 miles an hour Girl Is the speed I drive
You tell me it's all right You don't mind a little pain
You say you just want me to take you for a drive
