Default Cragar SS uni-lug

Thinking about some Cragars for the front. I have read good and bad about the uni-lugs. Anyone run them? Any thoughts or comments appreciated. Some guys say they have a hard time getting them to balance.

I had unilugs on an 87 IROC. The car was a theft recovery and the unilugs were on the car when we got it. I did not notice any unusual vibrations, but had 2 sets of front bearings wear out. Eventually we put the correct factory wheels on the car and never had bearing problems after doing that. I'll never use unilugs again.

I have unilug keystones in the camaro . . . they're outta balance, but it's cause the damn rim got bent . . . my brother ran the frickin thing into a curb . . .

Never had any other vibrations from any of the others i have. Maybe i'm just lucky
