Q? about wheel w/ camber wear & Replacement center cap Q?

2 Q?'s. I'm considering purchasing a set of wheels that have been mounted with a camber. The tires need to be replaced due to excessive camber wear, but the guy gave me a deal on the rims. My question is do I need to be worried about the rims being bent or warped at all because of the camber style mounting??
My second Q? is I'm seeking a single(1) replacement center cap for a Silver 17" BSA 246 CAM Series rim, ASAP. I've contacted BSA, and googled and haven't found much. You can view the rim at wwwgotwheelsandtire.com. Thanks!

1st question doesn't make sense nor can I understand it...

As for the center cap, contact a shop that sells BSA wheels and see if they can help you out. BSA themself should be able to though, otherwise I wouldn't get their wheels NO MATTER what deal you are getting on them.

The wheels were mounted with a camber kit. Does this warp or bend the rims?

Ohh, that makes a bit mose sense. It won't affect the rims, not that I've seen or heard of at least. Using large enough spacers can uowever, but that'll wear out or damamge your hubs and knuckles long before it does anything to the wheels. Since a camber mit CORRECTS camber when properly setup, then it takes any added stress OFF of the wheels, therefor a better situation, plus you save your tires.
