I've thought about that as an option, too, Mike. It's hard to tell with them in the car but I'm afraid it's not just the face/surface. I'll check as I move further along.
Tire shop said they are balanced and the rim is good. The tires aren't round any more though. I feared this since the car did sit for so long with these tires on it. I just never noticed any noise or low speed issues. I was planning to buy new tires soon. I just ordered new Dunlop Direzza DZ102's for the rear. They'll be here by tomorrow. I'm waiting on the front because I want to see if I can go with a 18x9.5 rim on the front, too.
Thanks!
