    i have just bought a pair of these myself, so if you'd like to compare centres to see if these would work, let me know.

    seems hard to believe the center would be bent being cast. more likely the outers are bent, or it doesn't sit on your hub correctly.

    put the rear up on stands and put the centre only on the hub, see if it runs true.

    let me know if you want a hand.

    thats good idea, ran out of light to day so might do that tmoz.. im 90% sure its the centre i measured the barrel and lip and they seem straight.. even butted them up against each other.. theres also no damage on them


    so i got the centre and placed it on my floor, (marble) and measured the distance from the floor to the mounting surface where the cap screws are... and theres a diffrence of about 3 mm from one end to another.. i took a pic but u can hardly see

    If your centres are bent, then wouldnt the outers be aswell?

    you should be able to have the centre machined to fix it sitting on your hub properly.

    pm me an offer on a pair of mine, and i'll let you know.

    maybe you have a bent axle?

    anyway, i'm happy to give you a hand sometime.

    ok bad, went to steves wheels, and they offered to take it and let me know... but were sus as also big chance of cracking after heated and pressed not to mention rip me off. then went to ferous forgings on ballarat road.. which are the only place i think that gave be best advise.. and that was to put it in the bin... chance off a hair line fracture is high not to mention it probs allready has one... to eliminate that and re heat it ect ect would cost more that purchasing new whole rim... im curently studing mech engineering and pass material science and he wasnt talking shit

    so yea sadness
