I actually posted that link before I had taken the car above 70mph on the freeway. The DUBS were a pain in the ass and no shop i could find could get them balanced. They even tried 2 different sets to no avail...and the wheel would wobble like crazy. Made it a dissapointment to drive...sad thing. Anyway, I returned them and paid the difference to upgrade to the Giovannas.
I am actually not minding so much that the Giovannas were stolen because, surprising as it may sound, the quality was WAY sub par. I had to go to a different tire shop (than the one I purchased from) to get them balanced because they did the same thing as the DUBS. The second tire shop I went to had a Hunter 9700 force balancer
GSP9700 Road Force Measurement System, which I found after doing all kinds of research on tire balancing, and when I watched the wheel as it rotated, they were all out of round by at least 1/4 inch...it was absurd how bad it was. Not only out of round but it wobbled from side to side (not sure what that's called). This was on 2 different machine spindles. The machine would come back with a warning that "force balancing can not correct this assembly". I think I might try Asanti's or maybe go back to stock???
I am still very dissapointed that I didn't catch them doing that...it was pretty "in your face" bold and deserving of a considerable thrashing. The whole mess is eating at me right now...and I just sold the stock rims and tires 2 weeks ago!
