    If all else fails, might try looking on U-Ship.
    I got lucky, $550 from PDX to SF in a single car, enclosed carrier. I'll be keeping the dude's card for a while. He has a deal with Tesla to ship and detail all of the cars sold in PDX too.

            Cascade wheel in lynnwood does it for $75 a wheel, and for like $115 a wheel they will bend fix, curb fix, and refinish them.

                      Edit: or you could buy some of those rollers that are on the bottom of like office chairs and bolt them to like a pallet and throw it under the front subframe.

                        Put a floor jack on the subframe.

                          No, I saw it on my youtube first. Saw it had a e30 and made gifs. No stealing was done.

                              It looks like someone is messing around with Maya, and making a character with the dynamics of rubber, and animating weird walk cycles just to see what it does. Then matching the motion to shot video.

                              Hilarious.

                                So my coworker took a random photo of my car today. About the only decent shot I have of it. Just makes me realize I need to fix the rear camber/toe and spare the wheel out correctly.
