Wheel Wobble

<< < (2/3) > >>

ChrisW:
No Kev nothing like that - it came on suddenly after we'd had all the wheels off to change brake pipes on the back end (easier access for bleeding with all the wheels off).

I did notice that one of the weights on one of the rears was a bit loose but its still happening after being rebalanced  :roll:

Matt_H:
Russ Brown-Lee(some of you may know him) told me that rear wheels dont really need balancing.  Have you got a spare set you can swap with?

Matthew

hobbit:
Didn't see the last line about the spare swapping sorry for repeating

Have you got access to a spare set of wheels, so you could eliminate the ones you have on as the problem, otherwise try a front to rear swap, did  the wheels go back onto the same corners they came off?

ChrisW:
No not got access to a spare set - they're 245/75's I'm running.
The wheels all went back in their original positions both when we did the brakes and when kwik fit re-balanced them.

Will try a front to back swap first when we have a look if we can't spot anything, failing that will try the spare on each wheel and see if it makes a difference.

hobbit:
Shame your not closer, got plenty of wheels round here you could borrow to eliminate that factor, but it sound like thats where your probs lie, it may mean a tyre strip down and re-fit, can't see that, unless the balancing machine was not suitable for the 16" wheels, and did not set correctly
