Before i put any time into repainting my wheels how can i tell if they're true?
They're a set of steelies. There is one obvious ding in one of them, but the others look ok. I bought four Pedrinis once but decided against using them so i sold them. The buyer complained that two of them were no good so i reimbursed him for those two. I know it must be a simple test. Is it as simple as spinning them on a dowel or spindle of some sort? tia |

I had a couple of old Fuchs wheels with some curb rash on them and took them in to my local Firestone shop. They spun them up on the wheel ballancer and they spun up true. A bit ugly, but true. Didn't even charge me for it.
