Hi BF have an litte question, i have buy the wheels direkt from
Factory Reprodutions because they have made an really Good Shipping price. Now i have an Question about the radial runout of these wheels 3 from 4 Wheels are really horrible and in one wheel we must Put nearly 200 gramms Metall that the Balancer maschine shows or says "OK":( I cant understand this , the wheels are New out of teh Box not used and now this.
But the Problem is , i cant drife more than 130 km/h because from the radial or little egg formed Wheels the complete Car is vibrating and the Stering wheel is shaking really hard. To drife on the Autobahn i can forget and my wife now is angree to drife with me because drife with this wheels feels like drifing ian wasching maschine.
Is there an trick to become the wheels OK ? i will put litte Vids here so you can say what you think.
Factory Repro.. says i should go to an Hounter Balancer, but its hard to finde here in Germany, and i dont know if an Hounter Balancer become the wheels right so that i can Drife the Car to the Limit . What you think ?



I hope anybody can Help, love the Optic and Look of the Wehhls But the felling is Bad in the moment

Im not sure how they were shipped to you, but it is possible they were damaged in s'hipping. We typically ship on a pallet over seas for that reason. Did you test all the wheels? Is it more than 1? Front or Rear? Staggered setup?

You can maybe see if there is a wheel repair shop in your area that has any input for you? It wouldnt be worth sending back to the states for exchange...

1 wheel is Ok, and 3 Wheels are bad, Have test them yes, have Videos from all the wheels here, its my Last option to let make an Wheel repair in an Wheel repair Shop, but from new Wheels i have not think this.
The Wheels comes here in the Orignal Karton Package, in 4 Pakets. te inside was good save the Wheels have had noc sratches or so.

After you put them on a Hunter machine and they are still the same you would need to contact FR to see mwhat the next step is. It is still possible for wheels to be damaged in shipping, with no scratches.

Blacky, the same happened to me about 2 years ago. I recieved a set of wheels from oversea.

They were in perfect condition and absolut no visible defects. Turned out that one rim has a huge dent. It looked horrible on the balancing mashine (like yours!). I was lucky that this was only on a inner lip and didn't affect the ride. I can't feel it while driving.

It's hard to believe that this happened during shipping. If the karton boxes aren't destroyed it could be a production fault.

Geh doch trotzdem mal noch zu einem Felgendoktor, vieleicht hat der noch ein Trick auf Lager. Drück dir die Daumen!

Mike

BFxenon,

Can u PM me a price for the 22" machined/black wheel with a red stripe (just like the one on the white camaro you posted).
I've been searching for the right wheel since April and I think the search is over, that wheel is absolutely sick!
Thanks

Another Bump for the 22" replicas. I love mine! I put General Exclaim UHP tires on mine for under $1000. They ride and handle great.

Can you please PM me a price for the machined without the black? 9"s up front and 10"s in the rear. Could you post any pics of the machined without black?

Thank you.
