questions and opinions
Alright so here is my one big complaint about our cars.. when you get over 75 mps the steering wheel starts to shake .. my alignment is good tires balanced and rotated just recently.. I also have eibach pro kit springs and 17" tantrums with 215 tires. is there anyway to fix the problem?? Also I was wondering to see what other people thought where money was best spent for tuning suspension on our cars..
Thanks .

My '02 stock EX doesnt shake at that speed, and I bet plenty of others dont either. Its not a common problem that you see alot of. Well atleast I havent read about it as being one... [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 417 ya either that or your wheels werent balanced correctly..
i had my wheels balances "correctly" each time it did it, i saw on the screen and it said 0. took it somewhere else and found out he was placing them on the wrong spot. it was supposed to go right behind the face of the wheel as well as the far inside but the first place was only putting it on the far inside.
n ya i've hit 110 with my stock wheels. my car feels unstable with my 18s for some reason. i think the ride is too harsh

Rep Power: 0 Punk *** tire shop or balancing people don't give a **** to what they are doing, keep in mind that they balance 9 to 5 every day, all you need to do is show them the green...! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 Well its done that since I've had the car.. with stockies and the 17"s.. I was reading reviews of civics from people who owned them and the steering wheel having a tendency to vibrate at high speeds came up a few times.
