    I know I know not GP wheels but still wheels. So i work at a GM dealer and our parts dept. has a set of 2010 GMC Yukon Denali 20" wheels, I can purchase them from GM for $50 a piece but......there is corrosion on the stud holes of 1 rim (see pic). These wheels go for $600 a piece new and i have tires that would go with them. What do you guys think should i buy them and take a chance of selling them???????

    With tires do it!!!

    $50 ea would amount to $200 spent for the wheels

    You should be able to sell them for more which is money you don't have... and if you get the wheels and tires combo... you could triple your investment by selling... I would jump on it, but that's just me

    i see that kinda corrosion at work every day, its something you cant prevent, its just ****ty ass quality from the factory and beside's its covered anyway by the center cap.

    Buy em, sell em, make money.

    Agreed... it is covered by the cap so it wouldn't be noticeable. I think its more of unpolished/protected/chromes areas of metal, rather than ****ty ass quality from the factory. But anyone wouldn't really worry because the caps would cover it and its not going cause any problems, it happens to them all.

    Basically anyone with a Chevy or GMC truck would be able to bolt them on so they should sell easily on CL or Ebay
