I have found/purchased -- some 14" sbp 6" wide wheels-- they have a slight movement-- but the tire tech thought it would be no problem with tires & on the car--- his statement was that most all steel wheels have slight movement.
What say you guys? I watched them spin & it was very hard to notice the movement-- but it was there-- I had them placed on a spin balancer -- Plans are to blast the wheels & powder coat. thanks!!

What was the amount of run out?, did he dial indicate them?....if not I'd take them to a place that services rims, A Wheel straighting/alignment/repair facilities, what doesn't look bad to the human eye can be determental to wheel/axle bearings, leading to failure
