Sorry got busy training. Funny thing, when I put the winter tires on the vibe went away. So I guess I will get the summer wheels rebalanced this winter

You've already gotten them checked to make sure they were balanced properly....... Fucked tire is my guess. A bulge or something in it a balancer won't pick up

Nah they are clean as hell. And i check the tires. Plus they are the same tires i had before with no vibe. Its the new rims i am sure. Only happens at highway speed. Anyone know if a shop that dies high speed balancing.

Similar issue with snow build up in my rim last year.

Did the vine start after the curb rash?

Noone does "high speed" balancing. Because theres no need to. Something is wrong.

No this vibration has been happening since he bought his rims and got his tires mounted. Speed Factor check them, all were in balance but thought a rim was slightly tweaked from new. So they replaced it and it still made no difference.

If you really wanted buy some dynabeads and try those. But thats a cover up, not fixing a problem

Strange. Could be a wheel bearing going, or a loose end link/. Cabs can cause this to happen. Your rotors could cause an imbalance.

Ah I don't think it's any of that. It only does it like exactly at highway speed. Any slower or faster and it goes away. It's a very slight shimmy.

My bet would be a tire then. Doesn't take much to throw off the balance that's for sure.
