jokster, good to know....mine really feel fine. I'm not sure if this new road noise is completely the the new tires or perhaps the bent rim...but if it's working fine and won't pose any future problems, oh well. I plan on making a 200+ mile trip this weekend with the wife and kids...will prolly be safe, right?
onihc....thanks! I ran through so many threads looking up "Bent wheels" but surprisingly everyone who mentioned bent wheels just ended up buying new ones anyway. I'd rather keep the OEM 16's for comfort and look...mostly for the wife...search does work most of the time...if you have the patience...lol

yup...that would this noob's fault. So if I have bent rims but no vibration, and the tire guy said it was tested and is running straight, do I NEED to get them replaced? Will it produce long term damage?
I'm curious because he said he threw them on the rears so we wouldn't notice it as much, and it really made a differene. Before with the bad tires and the previous setup there was vibration at 60+ mph...now it feels normal, except for the road noise from the tires...
