Hmm... Well, I'm going to be sure that whomever mounts this next set can spin them up to speed and perfectly balance them. I guess I'll call around. Any vibration can be amplified at the natural resonant frequency of the suspension. If that happens at 40 or 50 MPH no big deal but at 120 MPH it could cause problems. At the very least it could cause premature tire wear or suspension issues.

I don't trust anyone to properly torque the lugs, though. Even the dealer service dept admitted they do not put a torque wrench on the lugs. I always re-torque whenever the wheels come off for anything.
