whenever i pull away from house the steering starts to wobble below 10-15mph. i had the wheels balanced a couple of months ago as i was going up the motorway as it was vibrating at 70 but that sorted it. wen the bloke balanced them he noticed there was a slight buckle (thru my own fault misjudging a turn off on a dark, wet bypass and locked up and went up a kerb pretty quick) in both front wheels and was wondering if this cud cause it, there g60 steels by the way
-
the normal cause of a slow speed wobble is an out of shape tyre !! could be down to buckle wheel though best thing to do is put buckle wheel on rear then you wont feel it
-
i dont know if the back wheels are buckled either plus they arnt balanced either as wen i had the tyres put on he sed they didnt need it
-
Check your front tyres for an egg shaped bump across the tread

i had this yesterday. went to qwik fit for a balance up ,and then found big arse bulge on the inside= new tyre
-
if the drivers side has a bulge i wont no now as i hav got a puncture but i will hav to check the passenger side later on
-
put the rear wheels on the front, if the wobble goes/changes then you know its the tyres or wheels at fault.
-
i put the spare wheel on after a puncture on the drivers side wheel and the wobble has now gone there must be a bulge on that tyre
-
or something else that has caused the puncture nail perhaps?????
-
a big nail. it was fine till i decided to wheel spin out of a juntion up at the local street races so i will get a new tyre thursday as my car looks odd with 3 g60 steels and on 13" steel
