914 361 015 00
Since they are pressure cast, being bent is easier and I haven't seen one cracked unless someone really clobbed a curb or such. If they are straight and true they should be no problem to balance with stick-on weights |

Mahles are relatively soft, so make sure they are straight before mounting tires... I had 8 of them and 3 were out of round or wobbled
but looked fine.. Best looking stock wheel imho |

I agree, in IMHO best looking wheel, the ones I found have tires mounted on them, what do I do if they are not straight?
