2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission bent wheels - how much is too much?

[Wyomingcowboy]

I have some 17" stock steel wheels off an 03 and one or more is slightly bent. When you put it on the balancer you can see a slight wobble. With the balancer here that I have access to, you can balance just the rim. So far, All I have needed is .5 oz to balance it. So my question is: how much is too much? I want to keep the wheels as used 17" tires seem to be easier to find than 16's, and I like the idea of having two sets of wheels and tires ready to go at all times.

The balancer is a Hunter Road Force Touch - which is the best machine manoey can buy at this time, but getting big holed wheels like ours to perfectly center is a challenge - $15k machine or not.....

You can balance an egg, but it will still wobble you right off the road. If the rims are bent, get them fixed. No amount of weight will make them round.

I was able to find a suitable cone and actually center th wheel like it's supposed to be. They are all straight and true. I guess I'll keep them. Now for some tires.....but NOT until after we close on our house and get moved. I have the stock 16's with about 8-9 32/nds left and they'll get me through the move and into the fall.
