Mate i personnaly think spigot rings are the problem they help the wheel to sit striaght if its sitting slightly off line it may wobble around a tiny bit but enough for you to feel it, look in reginal section under west mids for meet details. Rob

Just what ive been told about spigot rings otherwise what would be the point in having them, spigot rings help the wheel fit on the hub perfectly straight so it doesnt wobble etc
