coupla questions

Yeah, that's what I meant. Looks like the mk1 is back in action, it's just too sketchy for me and it'll take me a few days to make my way to a tire store and see if they have hubcentric rings.

It's not the 15" wheels that are supported by four tiny little bolts.
It's the one-ton car......

Nope, pretty much vibration free. Although over rough stuff (like Daun's driveway), there was a lot of thunking that Julie thought was the strut bearings. I took a second look and they look brand new, although one of the metal caps (the flat peice on top of the bearing) has a slight U shape to it. They're the same rims Chuck Blue has. We have a lot of discount tire places here, I'll have to check it out. I was afraid it was going to be some expensive piece I had to order. Having 15" wheels supported by 4 dinky little bolts makes me pretty nervous though.

tire shop and they located a complete set for like 8$

this could be your problem the rims become off center
and rubs on the caliper... do you have some vibrations
in the steering while driving the car ?
