Buckled Alloys X3 And Nothing Hit :/

at my last service, toyota have said i have 3 buckled [not noticable while driving] alloys, ive hit nothing, but our roads are pretty bumpy, thing is i have some fairly new 6mm+ t1rs on the front with 40 sidewalls, is this the likely cause?

i dont want to get a new set of alloys and stick the same tyres on for it to happen again! mot is up soon too :/

im definitly thinking of selling the celica now [7th vvtli] cause of seeming unending issues!!

The Celica wheels are very soft and you are not alone in finding buckled wheels, finding genuine replacements is tricky too, find a suitable wheel supplier and get a set of four, it will be cheaper than finding genuine ones. We used to supply them, we could get them in bulk, but stocks are noe exhausted

Kingo :thumbsup:

if indeed 3 are buckled, [i do have my doubts], i will get a set of aez tidore after market ones, ive had my eye on them for a while and put 45 sidewall tyres back on instead of the 40s, its good to know that they are soft so hopefully other alloys wont do the same!!

but no, i cant feel any vibration or anything so they cant be bad, but i need new brakes as well so cant be sure

another note

i had ebc red and slotted discs fitted before but these have always made a contact noise which hasnt been figured out so to be safe im going for a cheap set of brakes/pads this time which is a shame :/ any advice on this would be helpful,
