HK GTS wheels are not made of natural timber, just plastic to look like simulated walnut. It should sit flat on a flat surface. A bit 'bowey' is generally from impact damage from an accident, (or rough installation/removal). Is it the top of the wheel that is bent away from you if in driving position? |

I agree. I have one and it'd take a lot more than that to convince me to part with it. |
