I've done many tire changes/wheel swaps etc. and am stumped by this. I recently mounted some AMGs (used) and while they're in great shape, I assume
they're balanced. Is this a wrong assumption? The bolt pattern and all mounted
up without incident. Is there anything I missed when mounting (i.e. anything
needed to properly mount on the front hub - inner rings etc.). The problem I
have is vibration about 50mph. Tire psi is correct and adjusted....... I'm thinking
I should simply go have all 4 computer balanced.

get it rebalanced

ya thats right!...ya

wheel could be bent

Yeah, going to have all four computer balanced this morning.

Just got back with all four computer balanced and while it's better, it still feels
like there's a vibration. I had the same thing happen some time back and the
tires were at fault. I think I'll invest in a four wheel alignment and live with
whatever vibrations exists after that point (I'll get new tires eventually).

pointman

since you say the vibration is only after 50 mph it is most likely a bad balancing job.

tpliquid

still vibrate itz ur tires.

trbo2nr

That's what I was afraid of. Well it will have to be this way for a bit. Tires
gonna run about $800.

Looks like you need a Road force Wheel Balancer

My dealer uses this on all my Benzes and Porsche. No vibrations

trbo2nr

Thanks for the suggestion. That will be a lot cheaper than spending $$ for
more tires. I'll give that a shot.

used it on my car. still had vibrations. it was the tires. change them out no vibrations at all. tires prolyl have some flat spots or wrong badly

Also AMG wheels (monoblock IIs) are notorious for going out of round after many miles.
