Hey everyone! Recently mounted my new wheels and tires and the local shop messed up. Wheel weights started falling off the second I got home. Had them redo it, happened again when I got home then drove a ways to have another shop do it. The second shop said they balanced perfectly but there's still a strong vibration when driving. I'm assuming since these aren't specific wheels to the 4g that there's a centering issue. I'm using lug nuts with a taper but no centering ring. Anyone have any advice on what I should do/solutions? Any help would be much appreciated.

Think I'm going to start by taking the wheels off and then putting them back on again. Then If the vibration changes I know it it's a mounting issue since nothing else changes. Then it's just a search to find how to fix it. Still figuring things out with the 4G haha.
 
Update!

Figured out this was just a defect with my wheel. Changed it out and it's as smooth as butter. If you're having a similar problem it's probably your lug nuts. Make sure you have lug nuts with a taper on them where it meets the wheel. This taper centers the wheel on the hub. Other than that it's probably a balancing issue.
