Does the vibration go away if you go faster (not encouraging you to find out). 80mph is right for wheel balancing problem and I would guess that's your problem.Just because they've just been done doesn't mean they were done right. There are a million threads about this. ________________________________________ Less than 24 hours to go! |

Mate if you've got two incorrect bolts on each wheel and possibly screwed suspension I wouldn't go driving anywhere at 100mph if I were you.I'd agree with wheel balancing. Take them to a different garage and have them done again. levon1987 wrote: i have no wheel aligment Get some. ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

It will be wheel balancing  Also, would be a good idea to use all the correct bolts to be on the safe side. As for wheel alignment, get it done at the same time. If the wheels are pointing the opposite way, they will tear your car in half   ________________________________________ My Pugrun 2007/2009 video clipsTake a look Pugrun 2007...Lose yourself  Xbox Live ID: Marksixysix (Forza 3, Forza 4 PES 2010, COD 6/MW2, WRC 2010).
