Hi. I've changed to a new set of tires. 195/55/15. Previously using Hankook. Now i'm using Maxxis Ma-Z1. my problem is... after changing tyre, i felt vibration when speeding from 110 kmh and above. I've done on wheel balancing, still doesn't help. My rims are ok. Any idea what may cause the problem? doh.gif

p/s: my previous tyre didn't have this problem at all, especially when i've done on wheel balancing.

do on/off wheel balancing, check alignment, check if steering rack / bushing etc all in proper condition.

off wheel balancing - done

steering rack / bushing etc all in proper condition - everything is still good

with car lifted, try to move/shake the tire, see if there are any loose/abnormal movements

if this is still fine, try swapping rims with the tires. (either among your own rim, or try out with other rims, see if got spares/shop can borrow or something)

do confirm if your drive shaft are actually damaged/unbalance (eg: use another set of wheels, rims and/or tires)

don't just simply change
