Sorry bud, I think it's about time you gave up this quest for 20"...... (well at least perhaps delay it till the new D3 20" wheels come out next year...... Bodsys Brake Bible
The quest will continue. They are most definetly copies. They are being brought back today by a friend and company has agreed to source a higher rated wheel for me so there is hope yet! Googsy

Oh and I also have no lock nuts - although I fortunately removed them without the need for a gas-axe
19"s RULE!!!
Hang in there Googsy, I'm sure the necessary planetary alignment will happen at some point...Cheers
Had serious trouble with wheel wobble on mine since new (275 45 20's). just had new ones fitted (via Blackcircles) they were badly balanced, but after taking them to HiQ who re balanced, I have no wobble at all.
Top marks to HiQ

You guys don't want 20" Stormers!!!
You want 19" RRS rims & MTR's ... that's the new black!

The guy at HiQ said that because of the spokes, it is difficult to get the balancing correct. I think that the look with them on is well worth persisting.Wish I had a D3, but at least I now have a Landie - YIPEE
