Default Vibration -

Well, ever since I installed the new rims/tires and sway bar, there has been some mild vibration at high speeds. Its barly noticable, but still curious to what that is. Does anyone else notice a difference like this with sway bars or wider tires? Could it be the bushings for the sway? Kinda curious, just hoping its not a alignment problem or something. Thanks.

It's probably a tire slightly out of balance... it's pretty normal. Bring it back to the place that installed your tires and tell 'em their' out of balance at high speed... usually they'll rebalance 'em for free.

Well, it does seem that the tires were out of balance. I took it back to Big "O" Tire and they are doing it for free. Thanks.
