rims them selves are as advertised though very clean cept the one that was curbed and it really wasnt bad at all.
good luck with sale
actually you are wrong, i just measured tread depth myself with calipers here after you left because i was a little irritated

everyone's perception of percentage tread left is different, there is one great way to tell and that is by measuring, you can't eyeball that type of stuff

these tires are 10/32" brand new -- the worst worn one is at 4/32" in some spots (deeper at others due to camber wear) so we can call that one about 35-40% tread left

the other 3 all measured around 5/32" (50% tread wear) pretty consistently across the board with the exception of extreme inner and outer edges to due camber wear as can be expected

i will gladly take pics on Monday of all of this if anyone really finds that necessary, but i have no reason to BS anyone, been doing this way too long
