i have needed tires for awhile now, i got about 50,000 out of my bfg g-force sport tires. i ordered the same and they sent the sport 2, so far they seem like a nice tire, i haven't put that many miles on them yet. while i was mounting and balancing them i noticed that my rims had pitting along the bead. i have seen this before years ago when i worked at a tire store, i figured the metals used would have improved or is it the south jersey road salts and spray they use now?
the rims are the ss 17x9.5's, and they do hold air. i do like them but i have been wanting a rim with a dish or bigger lip i just cant decide which ones.
has anyone else noticed this problem or been made aware when getting new tires? i do know there are companies that could probably fix them, but i would still need rims.
anyway, for those getting new tires keep an eye out for this problem.
