I wouldn't sweat it. Do 40 and 'feel' for it... do 50... so on... I don't think you'll notice.

Could any of you hear the the rotors hitting the brake pads, might have been hard to hear though, that's what it's doing, it sounds like it rubbing on one spot of the rotor every time the wheel makes a complete turn

Do you still have E-brake? Mine was hitting a little and had to adjust it out some. What type of wheel and lugs do you have? May not be centered good. Just a thought.

Do you have press in studs?

They are moser axles, I believe the studs are pressed in, I have the e brake still and didn't think about that, I have the acorn style lug nuts, they came with the custom torque thrust 2s that are 17x11, made sure that I tightend them in a star pattern. Il post a vid of just the axles later today

If the knurl of your pressed in studs extend beyond the axle flanges, check to see if your rotors sit flat on the axle itself. This has been a problem in the past with other members on this site. It is a simple matter of relieving your rotor hat to accomodate the knurl. This happened to me on some after market studs. Hope this helps.

Not a pro but it looks OK to me. I agree with the other poster, looks almost like it is more the tire than the wheel or axle moving.

If its more the tire, does that mean its a defective tire, should that be something of concern

Only if you feel it at speeds... Try slow speed and see if you can feel it. Gradually step up the speed. By the look, you shouldn't feel it.

Update, I have put 18 miles on it so far, I can't really tell If there's a wobble from these shitty streets here, I still haven't got around to checking the wheels studs to see if the shoulders are hitting the rotor, so far everything sounds good except for my suspension making a bunch of noise
