Road Force Balance shop
Hi I'm located in Socal and have been having steering vibrations above 60 mph for a while now. Having been through 3 road force balances at 2 different shops and fixing 2 bent wheels, the shimmy is still there. Now I want to take it to a different shop and give it last try. Oh i did a alignment too. The guy said it was completely off. I probably hit a big pothole causing all these
Can anyone recommend a good shop? Or should I just give it a try at local dealer. I am willing to go anywhere in LA. thx in advance Last edited by PurM3; 02-02-2013 at 09:35 PM.. |

I had the same issue. It was my tires. They were brand new Hankook V12's. FYI.

If you are running spacers, remove them. Solved my problem.

Could be the spacers..but if he didnt have a vibration before I would be leaning more towards the wheels and/or tires..especially since OP said he's had two bent wheels..sometimes when they are fixed they are still not 100% true and cause vibrations

I think that's the problem: mismatched tires. I would either get all Continentals or pss.
