i think i posted some thing like thie before but i just put my rims on and had them balanced and whenever i break 65-70 my steering wheel shakes left and right violently. this probobally has something to do with my rims and i was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem. the guy at the tire store says i dont need an alignment after switching rims cause it was done a few months ago. thanks in advance

if they were already balanced, then it's time to get another alignment. also make sure that all the tires have the same air pressure.

My wheel use to shake and sometimes when I come to a stop it pulls hard to the right. But it only does this sometimes and at first I thought it was my alignment and brakes but I took my car to get looked at yesterday.. Got the wheels balanced and rotated and brakes looked at. The guy said there was nothing wrong with my breaks they looked good and all. Well my wheel doesn't shake but coming home last I pulled to a stop and had to hold my wheel to keep from going into the next lane.

i still say that they need to be balanced. I drove two weeks with my alignment really off after I got my coil overs installed (letting the springs settle) and my steering wheel didn't shake when I got on the freeway

you may need two hub centrix rings for the two front wheels.
Really BAD reality TV is the reason I stopped watching MTV.

double check to make sure that the tires are mounted on the right side of the car if they are directional. if you tighten the rim down in incriments of all five lug nuts at 20lbs then 40lbs and 60lbs, you will not need to get the center hub for the rim to sit center.
