If you had no issues before fitting them, Then having them balanced would be a good start. If you had wobbles before fitting them then the above linked thread is you next stop for information.

It's been fettled just a tad.

Just a bit more info might help.

Are the tyres new and were the wheels balanced etc. etc.

Sometimes or even often it's the tyres. If I am going to have troubles it is usually not with steels. Even alloys are comparatively rarely to blame.

Did you clean up the mating surfaces?
