Hey guys

ive putted my summer tires on and when i drive it shakes and makes a wobbling noise.

When i switch tires i dont mark them down to see which was were, I just install them randomly. Maybe its that. Or maybe they became off balance, didnt have that problem last summer.

What could it be?

Thanks in advance!!!

at a decent tire shop, the tires that take the most weight to balance are normally placed in the rear. you might look at the weights stuck on the rims and move them accordingly. if it were me, i would inspect them for lumps and then have them rebalanced, as it is cheap, quick, and should help. you should spend 5 minutes picking any rocks or crap out of the tread before you have them balanced, as you likely care more than the guy at the tire shop.

i'm assuming your lug nuts are on right and the hub/rim mating surfaces are flat and burr/debris free

ive found the solution.

on the driver side front and back. the front weight was .75 and the back one was 1.0, i switch both then i made sure both tires behind were the lowest in weight and then i took off all tires. cleaned the threads and put them back good.

No problem anymore, runs smooth. thanks.

and no need to go balance them

im wondering, would buying a bubble wheel balancer be a good investment or its not worth the hassle.
