The quest will continue. They are most definetly copies. They are being brought back today by a friend and company has agreed to source a higher rated wheel for me so there is hope yet! Thumbs Up

Oh and I also have no lock nuts - although I fortunately removed them without the need for a gas-axe Very Happy

19"s RULE!!!

Hang in there Googsy, I'm sure the necessary planetary alignment will happen at some point...

Had serious trouble with wheel wobble on mine since new (275 45 20's). just had new ones fitted (via Blackcircles) they were badly balanced, but after taking them to HiQ who re balanced, I have no wobble at all.

Top marks to HiQ

The guy at HiQ said that because of the spokes, it is difficult to get the balancing correct. I think that the look with them on is well worth persisting.
