after balancing my tires 3 times i finally found out my rims has what they called ( they being the guy at Mr.Tire) a hobble.. he said its some kinda manufacturing error.. OR MAYBE it could be like someone kinda mishandle them while shipping or something along those lines.. has anyone heard of this or do u know of anything i could do about it? call the manufacturer??? or go to a place that fixes rims??? any suggestions would be helpful! thanks

What kind of wheels are they?
If the rim was bent during shipping, it would be cracked...most likely, the bad rim somehow got through one of the QC checks...definitely call the manufacturer or store...any decent manufacturer or store would replace it.

hmmm, a Volk rim that's not perfect...that's kinda hard to believe...now I'm thinking maybe it was damaged during shipping!
At any rate, I would try the store first. If they don't help, then I would contact Mackin Industries (www.mackinindustries.com) and see if and see if they can do anything for you.
