wheel vibration

Post by stevekoz »

Hi all,

Recently changed my rims to a set of Brabus reps 18"

They needed spigot rings to fit and as such i got them 57.1 to 66.6 . Wheels fit fine, bolt holes didn't need adjusting and my current bolts fit fine.

However i've noticed now a severe vibration at speed - if im at about 70-80mph the wheels seems to send a very large amount of vibration through the steering. They are rotational Nankang tyres and the wheels weren't damaged or welded and are in good true condition. I can't put it down to anything but he wheels. They arefine up to about 60mph and no vibration is felt at all.

Anyone have any ideas?

Cheers
steve
