They do? *examines all wheels carefully* Looking at only the face of the wheel...

Wheel #1 is all good. Just dustier than an old lady's pu...

Wheel #2 is all good, however I do see some minor bad craftmanship in the finish on the edges. It's hard to tell if I'm looking at black edges or silver edges because the wheel likes to shimmer under light. However, near the center where the center cap belongs, I can see some error in craftmanship - which in any case could be covered with the center cap. This was perhaps the wheel you were looking at, Steve.

Wheel #3 is cleaner than a bitch on vagisil... still a lil' dusty.

Wheel #4 is just a good. They could all use a lil' water on them.

I hate putting these wheels for sale cuz I still like'em but I gotta get by and it doesn't look like I'll have tires for them soon anyway. As long as I get my forged Emotions in the future (cuz they're not even out yet) then I'll be fine replacing these.
