Pictures have to wait until tomorrow as it's too dark out right now. Suffice it to say they look better than I thought they would, though I didn't buy the wheels for their appearance.

Any curbage on the wheels? I have four stock wheels with Dunlops that I plan to keep as a daily drive set after I scrub in my Advans, but one wheel is dinged up a little bit. I had planned to try my hand at repairing it, but if you want to arrange a trade + cash or something I might be tempted to go that route.

I'm not really interested in giving you more stuff to store. I was looking to flip one stock wheel with Dunlops mounted for another in better condition with some cash on the side to sweeten the deal, but if that's too much trouble then I understand.

I'm currently scrubbing in the tires so I won't know for 500 miles. Initial impressions are that it's slightly quieter, the ride is a bit smoother, the steering effort is lighter (despite changing to an offset that should make it heavier), and the car is a touch slower to respond. I think this might be due more towards the lighter weight of the wheel and the mold release compound coupled with the full thread depth though.

I don't think what Hayward did will fix the smell. My opinion is it'll come back in time. However I can't just go back and tell them that as there really isn't a problem right now. Jeff is easy to work with anyway so I'll just bide my time. I can help you with the tranny fluid next week. I'm looking to touch up my stock wheels, what to help with that?
