vibrations

well yesterday when I was cruising to another city on the highways, between 55 and 60mph theres a vibration in the steering wheel.

Am I correct when I think its that the tires werent balanced well or they just are unbalanced?

Theres no vibration in the shifter that is not supposed to be there.

balance?

zinc02GT · July 8th, 2008, 03:56 PM

you know the weights on your rims that balance the tire to keep vibrations and fast tire wear form occuing? yeah that kind of balanced.

tires rotated and balanced ring a bell? not being a douche really just asking

The first thought that popped into my head was balancing.

zinc02GT · July 8th, 2008, 04:12 PM

yeah. $10 per tire sound like an alright price?

yeah i know that i hinting at the fact that it would most likely mean the balancing was out.

yeah get your tires balanced if thats not it you have a belt broke in one of your tires

could have had a weight come off.....shitty balance job, could just be off balance, check your tire pressure, rotate tires

none of that fixes it u could have a busted belt in the tire

^^^ he beat me on the busted belt

Well I got a friend of mine who works at a tire shop to check it out.

Im going to start out by saying this. I have very bad attention to detail when its important things...

Well, the person that did my tires NEVER put weights on them. Every tire did not have a weight on it. To add to that I had TWO nails in one tire. One of the nails never punctured and the other had to be fixed and to top this motherfucker off, the fucking idiot put my tires on BACKWARDS!!!!

FUCKING BACKWARDS!!!!!!!! OMG!!!

I was furious... I still am pretty ticked off...

It costed me $54 and some change to get the tires done and the one patched...

I went for a test drive and I got er up to 100mph and I can now say it handles like a Mustang should. Smooth as glass
