get a real shop to balance your tires!! a make sure they have a roadforce machine.

with my tib the slightest unbalance and i would feel it....my elantra not so much....but roadforcing the assembly helps tremendously

 

I've had my tires balanced once (with the purchase of 4 new tires), already ... this was happening with the tires I had on when I bought the car too. However, I never did specifically ask that the balancing of the new tires be done using a "roadforce machine". Thanks for the tip, only1tib, I'll give that a try in Jan after putting in the kyb struts.



damn!! I was betting that that was the cause of the problem! Let's see if the wheel balance using a roadforce machine, helps.

 

well time to find someone with a roadforce macine

 

Have you checked to make sure both axles are balanced. I had a violent steering wheel vibration, and one day i jacked both front tires off the ground and removed them. I put the car in first gear and watched them rotate and the passenger side axle was bent. my .02 cents

 

How much would that cost? What kind of shop would you go to to fix a bent axle

 

A new one is about 50 dollars after core charge. And i changed it myself in a gravel driveway on some jack stands. It took less than 2 hours, but i wouldn't go replacing anymore parts until you figure out what the vibration is. A bent axle can cause steering vibration, but that is just a suggestion to look into. Do a visual rotating inspection first, if its bent you will be able to see it.
