Looks about like my right side wheels, in fact mine may be worse! I'm getting mine chromed when I get new tires again, which won't be too long.
Speaking of tires, I don't see how you guys are buying tires that are not run-flats. Oh, I'm aware of the better handling benefits of doing it, but what are you guys doing about NO SPARE...!
Ideally, when a tire starts going low, you get advance warning with the TPS monitor, but what if you hit something in the road that puts a gash in the tire, then what...oh, I know..."that's what Roadside Assistance or AAA is for. Then when they get there, what are they going to do?...since your tire won't hold air...do they go and get you a new tire from somewhere?...do they happen to have one of those 6 lug wheels with them?...or are you carrying a wheel/tire?...which one do you carry a front or a rear?...or are you carrying and SRX(6 lug) spacesaver spare, which fits in the spare tire well, but does it fit over 'them great big brakes'...?
These are the tough questions that I asked myself and why I still run run-flats untill someone comes out with better ones in our size.
