So I got some wheel vintiques 15x8 OE style wheels from classic industries and when I got tires mounted the guy told me the rims were bent (I believe this was noticed on the wheel balancing machine)
After looking at them closer the center bore looks like it was stamped incorrectly on both wheels (pics attached) from one side to the other the lip/flare is uneven. The wheel was mounted on the balancing machine on the center bore and tightened with a center nut, I am thinking if the wheel was mounted with a lug centric mount it would not be bent. It seems like the center bore really isn't that critical with conical lug nuts.
I'm trying to find a tire shop with a lug centric balancing machine but wanted to see if anyone else has ran into this.
