Yes they are replicas. I had them balanced at 2 different tire shops. Both shops checked for dings/bends in the wheel. Hubcentric rings? Do you guys think that mite be the cause? I called discounttire and they said anything over 9.5 for my car was too much. But I want more sources. So is it really too wide? I really want to keep this setup i love the look. Please give me adice?
