No, I did not know they were not round when they were mounted. After getting home I called the tire shop complaining that my car was vibrating at any speed and they said it was expected since I had the same tires and different wheels. Well after a few hundred miles, I could still feel a lot of vibration. So I took it back and they said they were all not round, then I put back the original ones and sent the new wheels to iForged. I could see they were not even when they had them on the road force machine. Well got them before my trip and Vince at iForged said the two front were not to spec. But, I haven't change them out. Hopefully next week I'll schedule an appointment with the same tire shop.

If I would've known iForged had such a bad reputation I would've gone another route. It sure will be my first and last iForged wheels.
