Default ROH wheel machining issues

Hey just a quick question for those who've had modular wheels made by ROH, has anyone ever had problems with their machining?

I ordered a set of 18in 3 piece wheels in feb, only to find when i recieved them they didn't fit
SO
When I had taken them back to my tyre store, who were helpfull, I brought along a spare hub to show them just what didn't fit, i even sent the hub off with the wheels.
NOW
Yesterday, i recieved my wheels again, 6 months after first ordering, and i loosely fit my hub into the wheel and thought all was ok so i had my tyres fit. When i brought them home to bolt to my cobra it was still wrong? sat about 2mm pround from flat on the hub, so when i spun the wheel on my car it spun like a buckled rim on a bike.
When I checked with the hub and they didn't fit the hub either.
Another frustrating thing, is rather then machine my first wheels, they cast a new set. I have jag hubs, and the first set the dust caps sat out and the rim looked like it had more dish.
The new set that's come would fit dust caps, but the centres are so close to the front edge they look like cheap bob jane wheels.
My car is nearing completion and this may hold me up
