Are they replica rims? I had a fiasco with them vibrating at 75mph+ for a year before I decided I had enough. It turned out to be both sides with issues... warped rim and out-of-round tire. Got those corrected and then it vibrated differently which was corrected with yet another balance... I think I had 6 re-balances (2 road force) done throughout the whole ordeal... what I learned was even the best balancer can't fix a bad rim/wheel. Make sure they spin around ok visually (on a balancer) first and foremost.
