Are you trying to trick me? I'm just now getting over some of the worst 
Rambler Mentality of having to do everything myself...!

Nahh, I'll pay someone else...! But seriously, on the Hornet I did mount each 
wheel on the raised front corner and put a dial guage on each one.  A few 
were bad, dings plus a lot of runout, I forget how much, probably from 40 
years of whacking curbs.

New wheels are $50 each, pretty cheap to ensure no vibration, no tire rim 
leaks and shiny metal and paint!
