I would get them replaced asap. It is dangerous to drive like that because a blow out is very possible. Try to drive as slow as you can till you get it fixed/

I was thinking that he meant that both tires are leaning inwards toward the engine... so like both slanted in at the top... dont think he meant the tires and rims are pysically bent.. no clue what the problem is

Silly me. I have 4 different tires and rims on. The front two wheels lean slightly inward towards the engine.

what the????

if your wheels are bent, then you bent the suspension, replace all broken and bend items.

a pic would help us too.

odds are both the wheels are bent too.

Uh, I said the front two wheels lean slightly inward. I'll be able to get a pic tomorrow. My dad dicked with it some and it helped a little bit. He said something about replacing the undercarriage. I don't remember and he doesn't know exactly what's bent or whatever. Should I take this to get an alignment or not?
