This is a problem that happened on the latest batch of Blackhawk rims and will be corrected. I've seen this problem and worse on the white rims too.
If you are stuck with some of the Blackhawk rims with the sloppy bearing holes here is an easy trick to employ so you can use them: Take an old decal and cut a small square out that will fit over the bearing hole. Press it onto the hole and cut an "x" with your xacto across the center, then push the bearing in. Trim the excess if you don't like your food to touch, the bearing will fit perfectly and the wheel will run true (if the rim is true)
