We are making assumptions based on the fact that the factory knows what they are doing... but some of them don't.

Some wheel brands w/ cheap/poor quality factories have shipped wheels without properly drilled lug seats.

I know, I've seen it come in from Asia on containers and had to scrap entire pallets of wheels because they weren't drilled properly.
