Re: FREE 4 factory wheels and 4 almost new tires
for me, going to see the UNI panthers win some games is more important than free goods. I have 2 weekends of home games to attend with my season tickets.

Re: FREE 4 factory wheels and 4 almost new tires
Actually, I picked them up on saturday, the 26th.
Tony was helpful, and cool about the whole thing, and went off mostly without any hitches. He even helped me navigate around some traffic obstacles in Chicago. Unfortunately, I forgot to pick up the lug nuts that go with the wheels, and I'm gonna have to have him ship those to me... The traffic in Chicago delayed me an hour getting there, at stop and go speed, and a jam downtown diverted me to surface streets, so I guess my mind was otherwise occupied, and the lugs slipped my mind until I was outside of the city, and on my way back. The wheels are in good shape. the paint is a little bubbled up, but that means it just matches my paint-damaged car. The tires are in good shape, although one did look like it had some wear on the sidewalls, as if it had run while flat for just a bit, but no bubbles or other deformations, and the tread depth is quite good. As long as the tires stay inflated (had been in storage for a period of time, so a bit low), it should be good. I cleaned them up a bit today, and they look pretty good. Certainly worth the free price tag, and the day's travel cost. Certainly a better option this winter than shagged-out Toyo T1-R summer tires would be, and certainly less expensive than a new set. Money that can be spent on other Subaru maintenance that remains to be done. Just need to get them spin-balanced just to double check, and the car's alignment checked to make sure I get nice long mileage out of them.
