have you........and this is only because you is a tool sometimes actually made sure your tyres are decent enough to balance?

Cos I know some remoulds can be bastards

did they also check your wheel for runout?

Runout?
And they're not remoulds

The place I used for the balancing, most likely not. The place I use for tyres now though is top notch. I'm gonna stick it into them just now and sed

Well today is the first in a long time that I've had a nice, vibration free drive home at 60

so what was the issue in the end,, as i have a similar problem from 55 onwards, ie, an almost induction type sound of rumble

the_wolf · May 2, 2014

I took it into my tyre place to have me new wheels fitted and I told him about the problem and he said aye its your balancing. Stuck them on the machine and they needed some amount of weights! Clearly the last place that balanced them just weren't interested and chucked weights on anywhere and everywhere but aye, problem solved! Simple solution after all!

Something so simple!! I have a similar problem, I'm off to get me wheels balanced

been lingering around this thread waiting for you to solve it rather then me throw money at it

the_wolf · May 2, 2014

I know. That's what I get for going to a cheap dodgy tyre place!

Dr_evil · May 2, 2014

I get my tyres balanced for free at the local

always worked well

the_wolf · May 2, 2014

Ive been going to a really good place for a while now but I got them balanced at a ****ty wee garage around the corner and I wish I hadn't now. Never mind, at least everything else is fine lol

words fail me, you are a spanner! the most spanneriest spanner in a box of spanners... may this shame forever haunt you

the_wolf · May 2, 2014

No shame at all. I'd already tried having them balanced by so called professionals so as far as I was aware that base had been covered

hehe, fair enough

you have to laugh though.. 18 pages for a standard wheel out of balance.

Dr_evil · May 2, 2014

Just for that you're driving your own car on the laning trip you twunt

the_wolf · May 2, 2014

Nope you're being silly. If anything the thread is very in depth and will help others

Can I refer you to my initial post....I believe it was post 15. Do I assume the beer is on you sir.?!

Oh it's nice to be right for a change .)
