Re: testing steel wheels?

["MO ( Steve Mick)" <micher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gary, you could take them to a shop that does spin balancing. Chuck them up 
and spin by hand to check for side to side wobble and check for out of 
roundness.  If there are no cracks, they should be OK unless the buyer 
mounts radial tires and installs on a heavy vehicle. Then they may crack
