Help!!! urgent
Hi,
I bought my car ('04 s55 amg) without the orig. wheels. Just got the original 18" wheels (brand new) and put it back on. The company I bought the wheels balanced, mounted brand new ps tires and I went to benz dealer to have put it on for me and do the alignment.
But now the car goes to the left lil bit and it's shaking, vibrating between 45 to 60 mph. So, my question is they didn't do a good job when they balance the wheels??? That's why it's shaking? Or because something else?
Thanks alot guys

Definately sounds like a balance problem to me. Have the dealer do a road force balance on them. Should fix the problem.

thank you, paid big-o-tire $60.00 to do the balance and yes, 3 out of 4 were off. Now it's getting better but it's still there (shaking just lil bit) and it's still pulling right.
I'll leave it like that for a few they and see what happen since everything are brand new (tires, rims, lug bolts) if it still exist after few days, I'll visit the dealler again.
