How does the bead area look on these rims? I've had problems with corrosion on alloy rims and rust on steel rims. Whenever I get new tires, I paint the inside of the rims before the new tires are moujnted.

I've seen posts that mention cracks in alloy wheels. A good machine shop can put dye on alloy rims or magnaflux steel wheels to locate cracks.
