Could somebody please tell me wtf is wrong here? I just picked up my new wheelset and the front tire is rubbing big time against the right side of the fork, please look at the pics.
First pic was taken from front, last two from back.

 

[Mwehahaha]

the dish is off... take it to your lbs and have them change the dish.

Looks like someone put the spokes on the wrong sides! Offset the wrong way.

What wheels are they?

Looks like whoever built them didn't use the dish tool... (Dished to one side too much.) Take em' back!

 

[combatkimura]

Who the hell built that wheel for you? Dish is way off.

I'm so focking pissed off. First I asked them to built them all black and when they called me two weeks ago to go and get them they used silver spokes, so now two weeks later strike two. Maybe the third time they'll do it right.
I was hoping to take Friday off and go to Highland for the whole weekend but it seems I'll be missing one day puta madre.

Nice. I'n thinking of doing the same combo, but with a hopefuly better wheel builder!

 

[mrpercussive]

you can pretty much just dish it yourself...

 

[bigmike00]

Quit your crying. Trim the side knobs off and ride.

 

[yukisan]

wouldn't risk my life with a wheel building hack.

WTF, get your $$ back and go to a professional

simple. first loosen all the spokes on the close side one full revolution and then tighten the far side one full revolution. this will pull your wheel to the center...

 

[KomodoRider]

trim both side nobs off and adjust the left side spokes... then you cant loose!!!!

 

[mrpercussive]

Yupp. listen to Westcoast hucker... just hope the wheel builder didnt do wrong spoke length calculations XD

 

[ltsltr]

LOL....sorry man. Its always funny when its not your bike. If that was my new wheels I'd be pissed too.

Take em back. Get money for the labor and go elsewhere, dishing and truing wheels is not as easy as loosening and tightening nipples you really need to have knowledge of how it effects the wheel on each opposing spoke. It takes practice.

You must have been the Guinea pig for that guy's first wheel build. I'm really sorry man. It's ok, it can be fixed.
