Default konig heliums?

Anybody got these rims? I'm about to purchase a set of 15x6.5 for my gsr. But a buddy of mine told me his set shimmies at around 50-60 mph. Had it balanced twices and has hubcentric rings, but it still does it. Tires were brand new also. Does anyone else have this problem?

those were defects in the cast of the wheel.. i have had three sets and have never had a problem with my wheels...i have bought 4 sets of wheels from konig and never had any of those problems.....from the pic's where the crack is in the spoke which is a defect in the mold of the wheel and is not that common anymore when i talked to jose at konig........
