Yeah John was telling me that the tolerance for meat on the sidewalls between brands was within no strict region and some would be really meaty and others not so much. The Nexen 225s came back with a little more stretch than I expected but I don't think its going to be a big issue with anyone. Just a complete lack of protection when I do smack into curbs (which has never happened before last night).

Yeah Trolley, I will call Rota on Monday and see if they will let me buy a single rim. People who saw it in person today at hillaries said it was plenty repairable but it might pay to have a spare around anyway, especially since I don't have any stock wheels anymore.
