I need a set of 4 wheels picked up in 44113 area and brought to Detroit area.Having them Fed ex or Ups would be too much for what the wheels are worth($80) steel 15x7.Im willing to throw in $40 for gas and flexible on time delivery area( im in Troy).Thanks in advance. MARK
 
188 miles,I've got 2 bad knees and after about 1 hour sitting they ache.Might have to suck it up and make the trip.Ive recently tried some CBD ointment that helps with the discomfort.I used to love these kind of road trips scoring parts,but my joints don't anymore
 
O.K. 188. I didn't calculate that you're on the north side. Tiger Stadium to the junction of US 2 and I-71 iz 140. Made that trip too many times to count between 1980 and 1994 on 18 wheels. FWIW, 3 X 200 mg Advil 8 hour + one hour and the pain iz gone. BTW, they have decided that they're no way to add nerve ending's to Titanium. Just get 'um done one at a time. If you try to do 'um both at the same time you'll need a Cherry Picker to get your butt off the Potty(trust me on that one), Jer

Sorry to hear that. I’ve been taking Relief Factor for years and does help, I’ve also found that CBD without THC isn’t going to do much for you outside of a placebo effect.
 
BTW Mr Rat. Keep a couple thing to keep in mind when you travel to "MISTAKE ON THE LAKE. The Founding Fathers in that town saw fit to get weird with their # streets through that place. 9th street west and 9th street east are not on the same end of a divided point, they are 18 blocks apart. Carry that over to 140th west and 140th east and those two are 280 blocks apart. And the other thing is that if you're going to the north east side of town DO NOT come off the north end of the I-71 fly over and think you are safe at hi-way speed. There iz a 90* right turn at the bottom of that fly-over that iz aptly named DEAD MANS CURVE for a reason. Have a safe trip sir, Jer
 
Thanks for the info guys! I can't take ibuprofen for pain because of other meds im on.Tylenol only,which helps,but don't want to take all the time.Knee dr. says I'm at 8 on pain scale,when I get to 9 then new knees,because I'm on 56 and that don't want me to need replaced again(20 year warranty i guess).

SIR RAT. I'd strongly suggest you find a new Orthopedic Surgeon. With what they're installing today and have been for many years, If you wear out the neoprene pad that's "dove tailed" into your tiatainum tibia plate they can and will make a little side cut on your knee and slide out the worn out bushing and slide in a new one. piece -a - cake. I worked with a guy that took one bullet through both knees in '68 in Vet Nam and had them both replaced at that time and he was still going strong with the same bushings they issued him in '68 in '00 which was the last time I checked on him. I got my right one done in '03 shortly after I retired by a Dr. Carpenter who I believe is still working out of St Joseph hospital in Chelsea, Mi.(He's one of six domiciled in Chelsea) All the other "Sports Doctors" work out of ST. Joe in Ann Arbor. I turned 81 this past May and got the left one replaced two month later in Mid July, Right in the middle of our unwelcomed covid 19 journey. Your call Pal? Personally I prefer being pain free. Happy Trails and travel safe, Jer

I can't take ibuprofen either. FWIW, Tylenol makes an Arthritis version also that does better with joint pain. Don't know the difference but it helps me with my arthritic shoulders
