I had em and had shimmy problems. They wouldnt balance(even though they showed it at the tire place) and kept getting shakes. Replaced with Ford wheels and no issues. Spend the money on a quality wheel.

just got mine in this week, they look even better than i expected! only bad thing is that they only shipped the fronts, it's going to take another few weeks for the rears in gunmetal to be in stock and available to ship. but it's still snowing in michigan so that will give me time to wait until its nicer to install them plus time to shop for the perfect tires and better center caps.

yeah they have a 1 year warranty on the finish and lifetime structural iirc. i'm just stoked that they finally came in staggered 20's. i've owned a lot of sets of different rims and the build quality and finish on these looks really good.

Did you remove the rotor clips? I just did it earlier today and it fixed the shakes that my car suffered from after installing AMR wheels....

do the clips serve a driving purpose or is to help the workers during assembly of the car?

Yes, the clips serve a purpose. They hold the rotor to the wheel hub while the car is moving down the assembly line.
