yeah I read about weldcraft and that when there done with it the wheel is actually more balanced then it was stock but still ill just wait to get some new wheels.
I'm in no rush, I like the nismo rims.
Balance and wobble are 2 different things. It depends on the wheel quality obviously but it should be very near perfectly balanced from the factory. If it's not, well there's a quality issue there...that can be corrected later yes.

They should however be completely wobble free as they are finished on a lathe which makes them perfectly round...once welded they cannot put them on a lathe again because they'd be taking away from the aluminum and would make the 18" wheel less than 18" and as I'm sure you can understand, that wouldn't be good.

So, when matched properly which is very difficult...it can be close, but not completely wobble free as from factory. Again, it would work if done right, it just depends if you wanna go that route or not at the end I guess.
