what would a set of 15" omf beadlocks be worth? they are 5 lug vw. I think 3 out of the 4 are bent on the inside of the rim, not real bad IMO. the inside doesnt have the stiffener ring. the outside is fine.

I got quoted $260 to fix all 4 rims, but I'm thinking of buying new ones with the inner ring.

I didnt bend them................lol...............I'm not jumping big

OMF can fix them if they are not to bad and add the inner ring.

Scrap aluminum is gettin' about a buck a pound I guess. ng.gif How about a garden hose holder...or a night stand.

I honestly dont know if they hold air or not. But if I was to guess, it looks like they would leak a little over a few days.

For cans, it was about $1.20/lb, but solid aluminum pieces like a rim were only 10 or 15 cents/lb.
