even if they have been rebuilt the rims are very likely to be worn if they have been ridden for a while
there was an excellent photo on here yesterday showing what wear looks like
once the rims have been worn the sidewalls start to this and hollow and eventually they will dent / bend / blow your tyre off the rim
