wannaBstuntin Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Need your wheels balanced most likely. If you haven't had an alignment in a while, you might as well get that done too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeryon Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 keep in mind that a tire shop usually only balances wheels up to about 60-70 mph as that is as fast as the machine goes. Even after a balancing there still might be a shake at 70+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C92hatchX Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 so thats why my wheels shake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C92hatchX Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 i usally dont but there are times i want to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kastigir Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 i usally dont but there are times i want to Well of course there are always times we want to. I typically set my cruise 6-9 MPH over the speed limit. In a 65 that means usually 71. My Camry has a real bad shake, that only gets worse as I go faster. I know it's probably bad tires cause I've already blown 2 of them. Your shake *could* be a bad belt in a tire, though I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i heart my ek9 Posted December 13, 2008 Author Share Posted December 13, 2008 well i mean i just go witht he flow of the traffic but in between is when the shaking starts once it hits 80 its a smooth ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben. Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Check and make sure rotors aren't warped.. Check tires for knots and bumps..probably things that have already been said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a '94, but I know it's the tires. You can feel the vibration as soon as you start moving. I'm guessing they have retreads on it. Last two tires I lost, each time the car started shaking before they shredded. I really need to get 2 new tires. What sucks is that these have a good amount of tread left.
