I bought a set of Mahle with tyres.
I brought them to a shop to have them balanced. When I put them on the car it started to vibrate at 90 to 120 kmh (55 to 75 Mph) Brought it back to the shop, redid the balance, didn't help. They say, the tyres may be warped. I bought them a new set of tyres, let it balance ... didn't help. They sent me to another shop that has a better machine. They put (a lot of)weigths inside and outside the rim (ugly), but it didn't helped. The problem occured when I bought these rims I figure they may be bent ... Could this old and wise guy be right ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeclYZQCyso Any advices ... |

Not sure about Mahles, but Pedrinis have early and late designs (lates are hub centric) which could make a difference depending on whether you have early or late hubs on your car. If you have a mixture on your car and when the wheels were removed for tires they might have been moved around.
Trying to remember, but as I recall earlys only fit on early hubs (seat correctly), while the lates will fit late or early hubs. Just a thought... |
