I used to run the stock military tires and wheels with runflats and I would always get a bad vibration right around 70mph. I tried centramatics and even balancing the old wheels on a dynamic balancer, but I could never get the vibration to stop. No vibration with the new setup at 70mph. It runs very smooth. There aren't any exterior weights on the new wheels, so they probably did use ceramic beads or something similar to balance the wheels internally. I can't hear anything bouncing around in the new wheels, but there has to be something inside. I know I had steel shot or something similar in two of the old military wheels because I could hear the shot bouncing around when I would roll the wheels on the garage floor.

Do you remember the part number you ordered?
And it went right on the hub with no changes?
They have a listing for H1, don't remember the part #, they bolt right up, I have them on both of my HMMWVs
