Did you remove the two drum holding screws, 11mm heads. I hope you didn't bent the wheels. These screws have to be removed for almost all non vanagon specific wheels.

The driver's side rear wheel is wobbling like crazy when I drive. All of the lug nuts are tight. The wheels came mounted and balanced from tire rack. I thought maybe I hadn't tightened the nuts evenly so I took the wheel off and tried again. Same result of wobbly wheel. Any pointers? BTW, these American racing rims Dennis suggested look awesome on the van! Cheers, Harry |
