new 18's
i got 18's for my 2.4 and as soon as i got them on as i came to a stop at a light my steering wheel would shake. This didnt happen before when i had my 17's. Does that simple mean i need new brakes or is something wrong with the 18's? oh and by the way when im driving fast my car drives smooth, its only when i come to a stop..im guessing just brakes?

If it only happens when your braking, more than likely your rotors are warped. Happened to me when I got my 18s on my old LT. I just had my rotors resurfaced and it fixed it. Your rotors may have been warped before, and they 18s amplified the shake and made it noticeable.
