Notice when I get up that speed I can hear and feel a bad vib. Can't tell if it's coming from the Yokohoma tires or front end ? Drive shaft ? Bad alignment ? Guess I can get the wheels rebalanced first. Has to be the tires right ?

wheels need to b rebalanced

Re-balance is always a good starting point. Could have throw a weight. It does take much to create a vibe.

Just a process of elimination. Let us know.

I see. Coming to think about it the other day I ran over a pretty bumpy road and ever since then I notice the vib appear.

Pray you didn't bent a rim or something !

Tacking on to the reply from jbenz99, I bent a rim and had the same vibration problem around 60 mph. Had the wheels rebalanced. It took the tech quite awhile to get it balanced. It was not until a couple months later that I noticed that I was losing air from one tire; not enough to set of a warning from the TPM system, 3-5 lbs over as many days, then much less.

What did u run over to bent the rim ?? I went over a bumpy deal in the road on the driver side. I was coming to a stop at a light and went over unflatten road. Couldn't had been going 20mph or less. Would be pretty crap if I bent a rim with that condition for a 16 inch wheel with good amount of rubber tires

I don't know specifically when I bent them, but think it was a pot hole while slowing from 55. I've hit a few pot holes over the 4.5 years I've had the car, but never had a bent wheel before. I run 18" wheels with original tire size.

It also depends on your tire pressure ..If one or all of your tires have low tire pressure and you drive over a bumping roads or just ran over a pot hole, it can bent a rim/s ! Also its still possible your wheels with proper tire pressure can hit a big pot hole driving around 20 and bent rim/s ! I highly recommend that if you are going to balance tires please have them perform road force balance !! That way it can check rims/tire's run out and also check for bent rim/s ..Good luck !!

Oh ok I see

So Road Force balance will determine if the rim is bent ? Discount Tires will do this ya know ?? Thanks again guys

You need to call and ask your local tire shop's company in your area to see if they offer Road force !
