before you go get your tires re-balanced, do you have centering rings? i use em on both sets of my am wheels. they're plastic rings ~2-3" in diameter that fit around the hub, ensuring a snug fit when you mount the wheel. my steering wheel shook badly above 50 mph before i installed the rings.

 

do the American Muscle wheels require centering rings? i thought they did not. i cant do the front and back switch since its 255front and 285rear but i have tried my other set of wheels tires and have the same problem

 

try torqing your wheels in the pattern shown in owners manual, i think it is 100lbs. I had this problem too, i took lugs off and reinstalled and torqued in sequence and problem went away.

 

i don't see how it'd hurt matters. only one set of wheels that i bought came with the rings, but i use em on both sets that i own: never had a problem, and don't have any shake whatsoever. but if you're uncertain, why not give the place you bought em a call?

 

anybody kno if American Muscle wheels require centering rings? AMNick??

 

i had the same problem with the wheels i bought from them, just curious, how much weight did it take to balance your wheels i have rows of weights on mine and the one wheel has weights stacked on top of each other

 

the most on mine is .5

 

I have the same shake from my 18x10 Deep Dish Bullitts from American Muscle, but It doesen't really bother me that much.

 

Yea, I knew that Nuke. I was speaking of the lug centric balancing that balance just as if it were on the car.
