I was told to take the gas card and fill it up. I probably only used 1/4 tank for the delivery but filled it up from about 1/2.

thats not a wheel you located on VWVortex? i mean you do have a thread up looking for a couple. i find it hard to believe the cheap aluminum keskin uses can be reshaped perfectly, without having any stress fracture. i have seen a Porsche wheel bend and destroy the lip the same way and the lip was fractured, the same way my old RM’s did

No Brett, it’s the same wheel. I was unable to find a replacement. The bend didn’t even break the bead on the tire suprisingly
