Help Yal! Unnecessary Vibration
 

whats up guys,
I recently put on new 18" rims and adjusted the height of my rear springs. But now every time I go over 60mph my wheel vibrates. Do I need to get the wheels aligned or ? Do any of you guys have an idea about whats wrong or how to fix it. Thanks.

i had the same problem you need to get an alignment and balance... but it could just be the rims also, but good luck

agreed

Go to a decent tire shop in your area and have your tires high speed balanced properly.

yah alignment is what you need

Uh, just a thought, but did you get hubcentric rings?

Alignment does not cause a high speed vibration......wheel balance issue most likely. Did they just do a static balance??

he did drop his car, a crappy alignment, camber/toe out of spec could cause a noise/vibration. Get an alignment, and have the tires mounted properly

In the 15 years I have worked in auto shops, I could count on one hand how often an alignment could cause a vibration. A dime to a dollar says the tires are out of balance.

Agreed, And PLEASE for the last time VIBRATIONS ARE CAUSED FROM ROTATING PARTS ONLY! As above i have been doing wheel alignments for the better part of 18 years now and have NEVER seen an alignment cause a vibration.

Make sure the tire are balanced correctly, but more importantly, hubcentric rings will help center the wheel to prevent vibrations.
