$75 each is reasonable consider it a done deal. How much of a hassle is shipping? Do you have any idea what the shipping costs might be? I would consider making the trip, I'll check it out and let you know.

I had a slow leak on a tire once, the problem turned out to be the valve. They have a rubber washer that seats against the wheel, it took some doing to find a replacement. I bought a few extras, no one local had any clue what to do about it. It was a bit of a research project.

I emailed the 928er in Danbury, to see if he can help you out.

I would much prefer to have you pick them up, as I don't have boxes for them, so packing could be problematic and expensive.

I drove the trip daily, to and from Poughkeepsie, when I did consulted for IBM. It is a 2 hour trip one way.

The big benefit is that you would see the wheels to know exactly what you are getting.
