[ROVERNET - UK] rostyle wheels

[Ron Morey]

greetings, I have had trouble with "tire men" not being able to clamp the 
rim properly. I have not had trouble with the center hole being out of 
center with the rest of the rim. It appears to have been caused by the "tire 
man" not taking time to check the center. I would think that if the rim runs 
out of round on more than one rim that would cause some questions to be 
asked. But maybe that's too logical. When they take the time to center it 
first, rather than spinning the clamp down and expecting all to be well in 1 
second flat there will likely be an out of round condition. Like one list 
member stated, if they can't get it right or refuse to get it right-"take it 
to another shop". The rostyle wheels are never any more out of balance than 
any other wheel. Usually, out of balance is caused by the tire not the rim.
That's enough venting for today.
Ron.
