Default anyone have a set of 17" wheels/tires they could lend for some troubleshooting?

I'm getting a funky vibration that I think may be due to one of my stock wheels being out of round.

I'd like to verify this by swapping on some wheels that I know aren't broken and see if the noise goes away.

Does anyone have a spare set in the Boston area they'd be willing to lend?

My car's an '02 S4, so the smaller OEM wheels won't work.

I work in Quincy, but make it into Brighton regularly to visit my girlfriend. I'd be willing to drive to meet up and test if need be.

Thanks in advance!

Default Re-balancing can solve many vibration issues unless you know you've hit something hard.

I've got lots of sets of wheels lying around, none with your bolt pattern though. (all 5x100, not 5x112) Good luck.
