Default checking out used rims

hi guys i'm considering buy a set used rims. the rims are 18 " at-180 or at-185 with toyo tires. does ALT make good quailty rims? since the rims are used how could i make sure that they are not damaged in any way such as being bent? what should i look for? and last but not least what is a good price to pay for them? thanks

Wow! Just $5 extra for tires? Take a look at them in person and carefully inspect them.

no at-180 or at-185 is the type of 18" alt rims im not sure exactly which one, they come with the toyo tires either way.

"or.take them to a good tyre shop adn have them rebalance the wheel+tyre for you and check for bent"


thanks for the advice, sounds good ill definitly do that.
