thanks guys,

she didn't stand in front she was happy sitting in it lol. i down loaded the pics to my computer and found a ton of pics she took of herself standing beside the stack of wheels when they were in the house. i couldn't help to laugh at her. she likes them more than me. i think my rotors maybe bad up front. or i need to retorque the wheels there is a slight steering wheel woble at speed. didn't notice it until i hit about 60-70mph

Did you remove the little retainers that hold the rotor on the stud? Factory wheels are machined for them but most aftermarket are machined flat. I torque my wheels to 130ftlb with a torque wrench, I never use a airgun for install.
