I determined yesterday that the issue is definitely just manufacturer quality. The locating pins fit perfect, also when properly 4-cornered the measurement is less than 1/16" off. It's the center DS bolt that isn't quite lining up, but not by much. These are captured nuts and there's some play in the adjustment, the locating pins being straight is the critical issue.
Still working on cutting and buffing, so no complete car pics yet.
Those 15" mags are looking sweet! j/k
Here's a pic of the k-member installed, with 5 bolts lol
UPS delivered these today
Pretty!!
