Are the OEM steel wheels hub centric? I am thinking of going with steels (cheaper and I think classier option) to replace my aftermarket EMPI 8-spoke wheels which are difficult to balance and "center" on my hubs (1974). I have tried the EMPI cone lug bolts (using the recommended sequential "star" pattern tightening technique) as well without luck. The tire center has tried rebalancing three times now using their Hunter machine. They said wheels are straight. The tires are all new. Alternatively, they recommended custom hub centering rings since they think the EMPI's are not sitting center on the hub.
