so to add to the saga that is my lease take over of the ms6, I have found out that I have one slightly bent rim (which balanced fine, but is still bent) and another that has a small pin whole from being curbed. This is all due to the previous owner, I have put less then 300 miles on the car so far.
so here is my question, my mechanic informed me that at his shop, they replace bent/damaged mazda rims on a regular basis, and its his opinion that this may keep happening since I drive on bad city roads. That coupled with the price of new and refurbed mazda rims (new 600+, refurb 350+) he suggested i go aftermarket.
I would have to swap out the 4 new tires I purchased to the new rims, but that is only a little job. I wanted to get everyones opinon on this before I drop a ton of money on any thing.
thanks.
