Whenever I get my car up to speed around 90-100 km/h, I get a really bad vibration back through the steering column and my steering wheel shakes like mad. I only started noticing this after I got my new rims and tires, so I assume it's related. Could I be in need of a wheel alignment? Wheel bearing? MY wheels were bigger than stock, can that have anything to do with it? It's rather annoying I must say. Help!

another possibility is that your tire pressure is uneven. I had the EXACT same problem a few months ago and i just evened out the tire pressure and the vibration stopped. At around 70mph that thing was wiggling like crazy. But that cured my problem. worth a shot.
But if not im pretty sure its a bad balance job. This post has been edited by eggman40: Jun 8, 2007 - 10:56 PM |
