Bought a set of new tires recently and since installing the car 'bounces' at low speeds. Kind of a vertical jiggle, really. Hard to describe, but it's really annoying and I can't tell what corner it's coming from exactly. I don't notice it at all at speeds over 35-40mph.
Wheels out of balance? Defect in one or more of the tires? I would expect the ride to be worse at higher speeds under either scenario, no? |
