get your tires balanced. that's most likely it
i just install my rim like a month ago and since then i always drive slow just the speed limit,,and last night i went to tgc meet and i go like 80 mph and my steering wheel become shaking i dont know y and when i slow down there is no more shaking,,,i never have prob with this before with my stock rim,,
by the way i have 17x7 rim and 225/45/17 tires
Yeah what he said.
how much do you guys think the balance will cost me??
A generic Pep Boys type spot use computerized alignment which would be around $70. The good news is those type places usually have a coupon you can print online. I would say to rotate your wheels (if you haven't done so in a few thousand miles), then go to the shop. that way, you're tires (tread wear) and wheels (alignment) are good
balancing at my job (sears auto center) is about $13 per tire
sounds like you need some hubcentric rings or your wheels rebalanced.
Webhosting for less than $3 a month? put "pinoyesv6" as a promo code.
these are hubcentric rings
they basically go in the center of the wheel where the wheel goes onto the bub of your car. You just need the right diameter and thickness to solve your problem

I will x2 on these my Konigs did the same thing around 60 before I got rings now its smooth.
The reason for hubcentric rings is because you have after market rims they are made to fit the hubs of most cars out there on the market so when you install them without the rings you make them lug centric hoping that the wheel is balanced correctly. That is rarely the case the hub centric rings will allow you to have the rims sit on the hub so that when you put the lugs in the wheel is already centered and balanced.
if i dont have that hub centric ring for a month coz i just notice,,,im i damaging my rim or my hub???
my whole front end shakes when i drive fast but i think its my tires
