As far as someone commenting about multi pieced wheels being the problem, that human error factors in, that could be eliminated by doing a couple things..
One: by hiring quality people who produce a quality product
Two: you can achieve proper torque ie not over torquing or under torquing by using a simple torque wrench. It's not hard to get uniform torque.. But that goes back to #1 having quality people work for you..

Obviously these wheels are made in China or somewhere in Asia. On the first pic you can see a Chinese written symbol right next to the L letter. It means left in Chinese

there not made in china, there made in the u.s.a by MHT, ive been to factory several times.
so ADV1 doesnt make these wheels, mht does.
They take a MHT wheel, up it by 40% and have adv1 carved on them.
I bought a mht wheel, concave.. needless to say they where 4200$ cheaper than the adv1's. Exactly the same wheel, only difference, there was a adv1 carved into the center cap/ inside spoke.
MHT is a joke, they said the wheel would weight 27 pounds, My scale said 39 pounds?
little bit off hey, they provided the wrong offset 3 times, and 11" wheel when i ordered a 12" wide, still waiting on my wheels 6 months later. Im glad i havent paid a cent for them yet.
MHT is to blame, of coarse if adv1 is not helping you solve to the problem, there are at blame.
but ive been dealing with mht for 4 years now through my business, Ive had 20 issues with them, wrong wheel, wrong colour, wrong bolt pattern. its never ending.
Needless to say, ive stop dealing with them... They pissed off to many of my customers.
