balancing of the tyres are out, or the rims are dented, nothing to do with alignment

Sent back to SC again, could be the tires. Tire shops also sometimes don't do good balancing... hentam only.
I had similar problem for my car. Asked them to re-do balancing and this time i look at the numbers on the machine myself, ensure really properly balanced

I've had this problem two years ago, after 110km/h my steering vibrates. Checked balancing, rim, alighnment all is fine but in the end found a bulging spot at my front tires, replaced it and problem solved

How old is your car? If it’s new is around 1 month, then complain to the SC and get them rectified. If it’s pretty long ie more than 1 year but still under warranty, just go to a reliable Tyre shop to get it fix.

It could be

- rim dented
- Tyre problem
- just need a good balancing from a reliable balancing machine.

Just goto tyre shop to do onwheel balancing. A bit pricy but the result is quite satisfying.

I experienced 2x

1. Tyre buldge
2. Tyre balancing

Some lazy tyre shop just told me road surface

What happen when u go beyond 120kmph? Let say 140-150. If the shake disappear then its was ur tyre balancing prob. If still shake or getting worse then maybe ur tyre swollen or brake disc dented or other cause. Swollen tyre can risk ur life.

Never heard outside balancing is pricy if compare to SC. If go back SC anything also more expensive.. laugh.gif

Yes, is better to go out to other tire shop and get their expertise on this.

I believe he's referring to the price of on wheel balancing vs off wheel balancing, not SC vs tire shop.
