Daniel, going to look sweet behind your BMW Performance Wheels! :thumbsup
There's only one thing left that I can think of that'll cause my wheels to wobble, and that's my hub/bearing assembly. There's nothing else connected to it - that is, unless the steering knuckle itself is somehow bent, but that's incredibly unlikely as the car has never been in an accident.
Further speculation comes from this post:

I already know I need new wheel bearings anyway (they are pretty loose and make some noise), and Timkens are really cheap at AutoZone - about $45 each. So, gonna give it a try.... I got nothing else to lose.

Ordered Bridgestone S04 Pole Positions. Installed cost of $937. Cheaper than the Extremecontact DW for my sizes. Pretty excited about getting rid of the stock goodyear runflats. Time to have some fun getting rid of the remaining rear tread this weekend. :party
Coolant system overhaul!

1997. One of the first cars to have them standard. I have the second generation of Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar EMTs (runflat) on my car as the wheels are from a 2008 c6. Noisy, harsh ride, and low grip. (at least in comparison to standard high performance summer tires) But they are rated for 200 miles at 0psi. Most other runflats are only 50 miles or so.
Here's the photographic proof of my traitorous ways!

I'm actually diggin' the "egg yolk" look! Though maybe that's just a little deserter's guilt ...
Finished up my per show detail on the interior, the engine compartment, washed the wheels and nose and packed all of my show stuff. Not to much room left.
