I was messaged about the wheels, which are for sale. Spent 5 minutes cleaning each up, they are not perfect but are not bad either (7x17 and 9x17). I put each wheel on my tire balancer and found that both fronts balanced with no weight, the back wheels needed 0.5 and 0.75 to balance.

One of the front wheels has the outer lip pushed in, but doesn't affect the wheel balance. One rear wheel has a small wobble, but balances with 0.75 oz. If someone is really interested, I can video the wheels on the balancer.
