Guest supra virgin 1 Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 I would automatically say that its tracking - usually most noticable at higher speed ie 70 - 80. After that i would say that if you have after market alloys on do they fit properly ? you may need spacers ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drnas78 Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 balancing mor ethen tracking espacially at 60+ mph you need to get tyres re balanced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Road surface and tyre tread design is also a major factor in steering vibration, i get vibration at certain speeds but only on certain roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_blackman Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I get this vibration at higher speeds too.... i've kinda given up trying to find out why now.... had wheels balanced by loads of people all fine, geo set up, I've been wondering if its the tires.....

GazB Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 A buckled wheel may be to blame try a different tyre centre for balancing and tell them youv'e been trying to sort problem another set of eyes may se something the other centre missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
