first road test of 18's

Post by satur9 »

okay i just took my new 18's for a quick freeway juant. i hit speeds over 85 and there were no EXCESSIVE shaking or anything that would indicate balance issues or anything but i just felt choppier and a little wierd. should i be concerned about anything. lug nuts were torqued properly and yes i have hubrings. on a side note when i pulled one of the wheels out the box there was a weight not attach to the rim so i took that one rim to get rebalanced and he took the 2 remaining sets of weights off that rim and put just one on. the remaining wheels have the 2 or three sets that were on them from were i bought the wheels. it doesnt seem like this is the problem though as the feeling doesnt seem confined to one corner. am i being paranoid?
look my sniggies, i had a strizz-oke in my brizz-ain okay,you know what im saying. so i cant move all good. but thanks for mentioning that .thank you very much.athf4evr. click here! you know you want to!!!

Lower profile tires and the rubber might be a little stiffer than your originals. You might just need an alignment? Maybe you should have the other wheels rebalanced to.I think you are being paranoid and you should give those wheels and tires to me!....lol Pictures?????
