16034, vibration in my wheels :( Posted by docta doom, Feb-26-03 03:56 AM
I put on the 16" stocks from the 97-99 spyder and it seems that after a little while driving, my front-left (driver side) wheel started vibrataing. i jacked the car up, and the wheel was movin around. ok. so i took it off and i put it back on tight. the next morning at school, when i was backing into my space i turned the wheel all the way and it felt not like i had gone to the end of my turning ability or whatever that would be called, but that i knocked the shit out of something when i was turning my wheel and it came loose. on the way home i took it slow because the wheel was vibrating some. the tires i have are 205/55/16 on the front so could there be clearnace issues there? could it be that it was my imagination and that the wheel is shaking after some driving because it's improperly installed? could it be my alignment (with the 14" stocks at speeds over 50 there was very noticeable vibrations)? could it be that the tire is messed up(it's pretty used)? i'm sad because i can't drive my car until this is fixed without risking even more costly damages(drove my dad's car to school... accord is comfortable and stuff, but it's not the same) ;(

if it vibrates at above 60mph or so it probably need to be balanced. i would check the balljoint and CV joint. have you had the recall done?

hmmm i was lookin at that just now. no i dont believe i've had the recall done so i'm gonna have to call satan and set that up. they also have to fix my pssngr side airbag cuz the cover warped from the sun so i might as well kill a few birds with one stone (new tires, aligment, balancing, recall, airbag). everything works out right?:thumbsup

i would have the airbag and the recall done by satan, the recall is totally free. i would have the rest done somewhere else, it'll be way cheaper.
