Exclamation **urgent** Need Help Quick!!

I put 20" ECO wheels (same tire size on all four) on my 04 E320 (W211).
Pulling to the right so brought it to MB and they did an alignment and wheel balance. Get it back and it appears nothing changed. I read the order and it says: "can not preform proper maintenance due to hub not aligned with wheel"
So, does this mean my dealer did not install some vital piece with the wheels? the car vibrates and shimmys between 40mph and 60mph only.

wouldnt be an emergency normally!! but i have to drive the car to FL from NYC and MUST leave tomorrow morning!

any advice???

thanks in advance

sounds as if your wheels are not hubcentric ... they make centering rings t correct that very problem
