I lost the question about anyone using Go Westy Wheels... someone asked
about experience with them...

I bought the 16" wheels for my '85 four months ago.  The pluses: the
vehicle is much, much more stable.  I could tell the difference
immediately.  I live in an area where there are a lot of bridges, and
crossing them in a wind is always an adventure.  The improved tracking
and handling have made this far less of a problem.  I wish I had done
this upgrade a long time ago.  I shopped wheels for a year, and found
these to be a good buy.  And, they are great looking.

The negatives: They are supposed to come balanced, but I had a lot of
vibration and it took two trips to the local shop and working with
someone who could do a "forced balance" (adjusting the tire on the
wheel) to get it smoothed out.  The tire shop guy said he thought the
wheels had fewer "ridges" (??) on the inside of the rim for sealing the
tire, and perhaps that was a weight or cost cutting move, but it could
allow the tire to travel on the wheel and throw off the balance.  I
never heard that before, and have not had a problem, but pass that along
as the only other negative I have encountered.

Bottom line: I am very happy with them and would buy them again.
