It’s hard to tell for sure if it’s a flat spot or a bend. When I look at the tire spinning I can see it dip, but when I hold my finger up to the rim I can feel it get closer, so it might be both. Either way, I’m not home to figure it out. Went to see Aaron Lewis play tonight.

I think he is talking about the type of rim, not the exact rim in question.
It was just to show a pic of the style of wheel to let other know how hard it will be (impossible) to straighten it
