It's not bad, but it's more than enough to annoy me.

I installed the wheels myself originally, used 82 ft lbs, in a star pattern... yesterday discount did their thing balanced the wheels and put them back on, and it's still there. So unfortunately I don't think that's the problem either


Edit: I ordered a set of 73 outer 66.1 inner hubcentric rings just in case. I'm willing to lose $20 just to make sure...
In terms of the wobble, what type of lug nuts are you using? The right choice will vary depending on the type of wheel you have. The ones that come with the stock sport wheels are not suited to most after-market wheels. As far as the noise, it could be that your tires are nearing the end of their useful life. I know that when my PSSs were down to 5/32" on the rears, I started to hear a "whump-whump-whump" noise that disappeared when I switched over to new PS4s. Had a similar problem on another vehicle when the tires became worn. How much tread is left on your tires?
