GREAT! I wonder how many other TT2 owners have wobbly feeling wheels and aren't admitting it? I hope it isn't too common, since there are a TON of these wheels out there on all kinds of cars right now.

Boyds made my car roll like a Lexus. These TT2s roll like Flintstone's caveman rod.

18x9 fronts, 18x10 rears. I might try swapping the KDW tires off of the Boyds and putting them on the TT2s, to see if they still have any vibrations. If they do, I'll probably sell the TT2s and Boyds and put something else on the car.

So, nothing is for sale at the moment

Tony running TT2s? Implausible! Just kidding, Tony. They look great on there. Sucks to hear of the vibrations. :/ Hopefully you can get it sorted out.

Well since the TTIIs are junk I'll take them off your hands. I'll even pay shipping Tony. Better than just chucking them in the junkyard.

Sucks man. They do look good on there.

This kind of thing keeps making want mine black or charcoal centered, car looks great Tony. My car gets a little vibration sometimes around 70mph too, didn't think about it being the wheels though.
