WTB: Mark VIII wheels

[jake_black94]

Hey there LVC,

The '97 LSC in our family has had slow leaks on a couple of tires for a while now - my dad took it to a tire shop, and was informed that it was corrosion along the rim, which isn't allowing the tire's bead to seal well enough to hold air 100%.

So, if anyone has any style stock Mark wheels - in decent, corrosion-free condition (they don't necessarily have to be mint), shoot me a PM or reply with a description/price right here.

Thanks in advance!

i just use an air powered wire wheel on that edge. cleans it right up, no leaks.
dismount the tires and try that first. its cheap.

I'll have some in about a month or so...doing a hub swap...s/h might be heavy tho..I'm in Georgia

I'll see about giving that a shot, Chris. Thanks for the tip. May still look at wheels, and then get his 10-spokes re-chromed or painted or something, just because we're down to the 2 Marks as our only vehicles. But if we have time where he's not driving it we can give it a shot.

dnsherrill - what style wheels are they gonna be, out of curiosity?

I've got a set of painted 10-spokes available real cheap. I want to get them out of the garage. Been sitting there for at least 3 years!
