OK No alignment issue, no bent rims, and not all Marines are dumb....

I went back due to vibration in the steering wheel, they got it better but not perfect, then I noticed the valve stem not siting right it was bent in.. had the shop in vegas were I bought my rims look at them and re balance them and look at the valve stem and the see if one rim as out of round, they said it was not, and the valve stem was not installed right and was held in just by air pressure... they also re balanced my wheels..
