Default Wheels issue

Hello All. I am new to the forums. Just bought my GS350 in mid June. Got a 2008 with only 52k miles, BOOM!

I got a set of Work Schwert Wheels in the deal. They are 20" Staggered setup - but I found they had more issues than the previous owner knew about. I don't love the wheels and so I am not sure I want to sink $600 into fixing them. I guess I am just looking for input from the group as to whether I should fix them or just sell them on with full disclosure about what fixing they need.

I would sell them. It would probably cost more than $600 bucks in the long run. I regret sinking $600 bucks in getting the oem repaired and power coated because the previous owner didn't know how to drive....

Sell, if you don't love them there's no sense in putting money in them.

If the wheels are out of round, I used to use a wheel repair shop that used to charge me $60 per wheel to repair. I would def repair the wheels, even if you tried to sell them damaged you will not get much for them vs having them fixed
