Some of you may know that on my way to and from the Midlands Meet on sunday my steering wheel was shaking gently from side to side at around 30mph but at 50+ the whole car felt like it was shaking apart and Ive never felt shaking so bad on the steering wheel felt like I was holding a bloody power tool :confused: no rude comments plesse this is a public forum :D
well I was thinking something like shocks or the balancers had come off the wheel..
Id just like to tell anyone if they ever get symptoms like this do not driveyour car stop and check your wheels by taking them off..
I took it to the wheel place thinking it would be something like above anyway chap took wheel off and Ive never seen something so bad.
my 19" OZ is cracked in 2 places on the back and the tyre had the biggest balloon in the inside edge Ive ever seen sticking out around 1 3rd of the wheel...
that wheel was ready to explode and its lucky that I drove at 25mph everywhere cuz of the vibrations....
Otherwise me and that wheel was on borrowed time.;..
Problem is I cant remember hitting any pot holes etc...
just thought id put some advice about it because you never know
