Just wondering, since often you can find used rims in good condition for a lot cheaper than new rims, is there any way to make sure there is nothing wrong with them? Is a visual inspection good enough?

i agree with valo..if u can get em spun on a balancer you can make sure that they aren't slightly warped. i remember my gf had hit a curb and when we took the rim off it lookd alright but when the guy put it on the balancer it wobbled :\
