wheel shimmy

Hey guys I recently had to replace my tires cause of allignment issues. The car came with 19 but I bought a set of supercharged 20 and new hankooks ever since I got the car back my steering wheel shakes from about 55-65 mph. Any one have any ideas its a. 2009. Hse

Not certain but its the sort of speed that balancing comes into play, thats what i would check first Thumbs Up MY10 3.0 HSE Santorini Black, Ivory Premium & extended leather, privacy, paddles, diamond turned alloys, Ipod lead that charges, tasmods, rrsport.co.uk stickers

Jeep 4.0 High Output XJ 94 6" teraflex lift, c/w rear coils, 9500lb winch, 35" TSL super swamper boggers, safari snorkel, custom made bumpers, tom woods custom double cardon driveshaft, twin electric fans. Don't follow it..............you wont make it. The first 4 x 4 by far.

Ex 2006 RRS SC - garbage
Ex 2016 135i M Sport - dream car
Ex 2003 RS6 Avant - piece of cr*p
Ex 2014 320d X Drive, M Sport Touring - ok I guess
Ex 2007 RRS TDV8 - bloody loved it
EX 2007 FL2 XS - not so bad

Hi,
Has your vehicle got the steering damper fitted? I understand it's fitted to all vehicles which have 20in as std but not all vehicles with 19in wheels - LR only advise 20in wheels with a steering damper fitted

I had this when I first collected my RRS and after 2 'wheel realignments and balancing' I still wasn't happy....it was eventually traced to the steering rack which was replaced and cured the problem completely!

Thumbs Up
