DT - I recently bought a full set of Level 8 Trackers and Mtrs in 15x8 for my 2013 Jk and am overall pleased with the look of the wheel, but have been having an issue with vibrations and shimmy at freeway speed. I had it looked at by a very reputable 4x4 shop here in Colorado and was told that I need hub centric rings. The local Discount tire that i bought them from did not try to sell me them, I would have bought them had they( I paid for the install kit with spline locks and all.) I had them balanced numerous times since install and had them rotated 180 on the wheel also to see if it would change anything. Still having the issue. My vehicle has less than 2000 miles on it and I am about to take a trip to California and really need this right. Any help you can provide would be appreciated. Thanks!

I got the new wheels and tires on a couple days ago... the wheels are awesome (Level 8 Tracker in black). I have had the soft 8 steel wheels on my TJ a few years ago and the the alloy tracker wheels look much much better and of course are lighter. Bottom line is I am glad I went with the level 8s very nice wheel and very affordable. 15" wheel fit perfect on my 08 Rubicon, I was a little worried the weights mounted on the inside of the wheel would hit, but they clear fine.
