so ive been trying to figure out why my car wobbles at about 80 mph. and for like the 3rd time i took it to the tireshop, they showed me 2 of my wheels on the balancer. looks like they are bent as shit from the inside.

how did this happen? are sawblades pretty soft? it must have been from the previous owner but im mainly trying to figure out how you bend it from the inside? its the 2 passenger wheels.

hit a curb hard enough (in your case probably spun out and smacked the curb) and they'll bend

had one on my truck, sucked royally...

they CAN be repaired, but saws are cheap...
