i too have an annoying shake at moderate to high speeds. funny thing is it's worse on some days than others. if it were balancing it would be there all the time, no? can a bent axle do this? it is just me? more sensitive to it in certain conditions. what about an out of kilter rim? any suggestions ? should i replace the rims or the axles? my tire shop swears they are balanced. and whatever happened to high speed balancing? they just plop the wheel/tire assembly on a really expensive-looking rig and spin it about 50 rpm. the display tells them where to put the weights and voila, 50$ later you are balanced. i miss the days when they asked you to leave the room because they spun the works at breakneck speeds, took out the charts, consulted everyone an staff and THEN YOU WERE BALANCED!! for real real, not for play play.
sorry for the diatribe.. i ment to say yes, check your balance, rims, belts and axles...in that order. peace This post has been edited by axelrduvirage: Apr 23, 2007 - 7:39 PM -------------------- ![]() |
