Ok there is a note about Diamond wheels being lug centric and the center hole can not be relied upon to be exactly centered. SOmething about how the center section is stamped and cut.
Anyone got an idea of how to balance one of these. I am going to put some Hankook RS-2 tires for the street on a set of 15 x 8 Diamond pro wheels. Wonder if I could use a spare front hub mount up the wheel and get it on a balance machine? |
