Hope this helps. I just posted some of this information in another thread. I have 15 X 8 Wheel Vintiques Magnum 500s purchased through Summit Racing. Before I bought them, I read all the negatives about balancing and improperly welded wheels and bent wheels out of the box. I bought them anyway, knowing that I may have to send them back and forth a few times before I was happy. All four arrived and tires were mounted and balanced without an issue. I did follow the instructions from Wheel Vintiques and found one place within a 25 mile radius of my house that had the equipment to lug-centric balance the wheels/tires. I guess this type of balancing simulates the wheel mounted to the hub of the vehicle with the lugnuts holding it on. I've had no issues, so I guess following the instructions worked. I think normal balancing would have had the same result, but I did not want to chance it. As far as quality, the Wheel Vintiques appear to have good chrome plating (no chipping or fading so far), but the black paint could have been nicer/smoother. Paint flaws are not noticable unless your face is down by the wheel. For the money (seemed reasonable) I am happy with them.
