I recently have noticed a bad vibration felt through the steering wheel (back/forth movement through the steering wheel) at arounf 75 MPH. Under that speed everything feels just fine, but over its defintely present. The only thing I can think of that has changed is 2 weeks ago they rotated tires. Any ideas on the cause?

do you have snow is your area if soo check the inside of the rim for ice chunks or snow that has built up. this will throw your tires off balance. it could also be mud chunks too.

Yeah, its porbly the tires I had the same exact problem a few weeks ago. I changed my tires and got them balanced, and everything was cool after that.

get your tires balanced, might be a bent rim. My dads car did this too but once we put his stock rims back on it went away.

when i put my wheels on the steering whell would shake. i then got some hub rings and put them on and that stopped the shaking. you should also check your wheels for balancing and for bent rims.

This is my guess after they rotated the tires the set on the front was not balanced, however I 'll know in the spring, I just put my winters on with 14" steelies, and things seem fine. I'll keep you guys updated.
Thanks exx |

finally a day without rain, drove around 80 mph without the vibration on my steelies which were balanced. When I switch back to my 16" wheels I'll get them balanced. Amazing how you only notice the vibration over 70MPH

Since this topic was resurected, I might as well ask:
I get a vibration in low gears between 0-30mph. What might it be? Anyone else have or did have this problem? -Ivan- |
