    neither?? why pay 400 shipped for wheels that have rash and may need respray, just paint your current wheels and get a cheap aftermarket set for that price. ..I say baby blue.

    ^that's still a 257mile round trip, and it sounds like they want gas money to meet.
    but brand new rota gravels go for $850, shipped, on ebay. (I know, no tires)

    The Rota Gravels are mine, just need to pick them up when the seller has time. $820 which I think is a steal

    Finally a new set of wheels and summer tires(well at least for the summer) Still gonna be rolling on stock wheels in the winter

    Do you know what lug nuts to use and where to buy some locally
