Steering Wheel Wobble, Tyre Balancing

(1/4) > >>

Mark_Solesbury:
Ive put the Greenway Macho's from my RR classic on the 90 for todays trip to devils pit..

They feel like they are not balanced at all. I cant feel it on the range rover, but it might be because all of the steering components need replacing...

They alloys and BFG AT's are fine at all speeds, but these make the steering wheel wobble at 50mph... Fairly badly.

Do you think somewhere like quick fit will be able to balance them, or am i better searching for a more independent place?

They are both 235 85 16

richo:
I've got the same problem.I know all Mt's are hard to balance but I'm also have the swivel joints checked to make sure there set right as I'm told this could be the cause

Mark_Solesbury:
Swivels were changed just before Xmas...

It has to be the tyres, as the other set dont do it.... Ill take it to somewhere tomorrow to get they balanced, although it does mean i need to clean it!

Tommo:
the machos might just bring out the wobble in your range rover. ive never balenced land rover tyres and not had a problem.

antk:
hi i have the same tyres as you only put them on 3 days ago and i get the same problem its just because they are mud tyres most seem to do it that i have had,

i wouldn't waste your money with balancing that will do nothing on mud tyres, i got mine fitted by a land rover specialist and they said not to balance them.
