Bent Rim?

Pretty sure the rim is bent. I just loosened some of the spoke-rim connectors and tightened some others, and the wheel is a bit straighter, at least it doesn't rub against the brakes anymore.

By the way take off the break pads wears them down. From the bent rim hitting them. Or did you put on the rim wrong ?

Check the description. I readjusted the spokes and they no longer rub the brakes. Thanks for the comment though.
