Wheel balance for 22's ??

I'm having trouble balancing my 22's it's been done twice now but still noticing a slight vibration at 50? also I can hear a rattling/creaking sound from the front end at low speeds around 10 mph. I'm thinking it might need lower arms either that or one of the wheels could be buckled not signs of it though any input would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers Thumbs Up

22's will magnify any defect and I've only yet met one person who can balance a wheel correctly!!!! If there are counter balance weights around the rim, take it back and get it done again, should only be weights in one spot on inner and outer of rim. Also sticky weights have habit of coming off especially in warm weather. Thumbs Up 2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

just had the same issue, my lower arms are goosed, however I had my 22" balanced first, all where out, two by over 100 grams and they had a slight dent in the rim, i put the two best ones on the front and that made a whole lot of difference, howerver if i replace my arms they wont last that long due to the stresses and strains buckled wheels will cause.So in a nutshell i need to replace the wheels before replacing the arms. 07,TDV8,Black, Black Heated leather all round, Rear Entertainment with Headpones & Remote, TV, DVD, Pure Dab Digital Radio, Sidesteps, Adaptive Headlights, sunroof, now working fuel burning heater Smile)))

i went to get my 22's balanced as i was getting a very slight vibration through the steering wheel at 50 / 60 mph. The guy then announced your 2 front wheels are out of shape !, he took me to the balancing machine and just spun the wheel by hand... it was like an egg !. ended up taking them to a alloy wheel repairer who straightened them and rebalanced for 100 quid. Only issue was he used the suspension compressor as a jacking point Big Cry 2010 RRS, TDV8
