More problems
« on: 09 June 2014, 18:50 »
Ok so here's the issue, got a vibration from the front ,  thought my wheel was buckled so took it to a place that refurbs alloys... They say both wheels are straight so put into the garage and they say can't find anything but think the wheel is to blame ( run on they say, don't know what this is) so I don't know what else it could be... Going to swap the wheels from back to front tomorrow to semifinal that moves the vibration.

Any ideas what to look for?

Checked the wheels are balanced? Does the vibration change with speed?
