Juddery steering between 50-65mph and upon heavy breaking!

Post by voodoo_jellybaby2k2 »

Hey,

Just got sum 2nd hand vauxhall corsa C sxi alloys for my car. They are quite scrubbed etc, but there usable.

Basically since I\'ve put them on my car, the steering wheel shakes/judders really badly in some cases between about 50mph and 65mph, and i don\'t know what it is that\'s doing it. Also upon braking it judders and shakes badly too, in fact upon braking the whole car including the dashboard and passenger shake too lol! :|

My brother said the balancing needs doing.....as well as the wheel place i took the car too. The balancing was quite a bit out, but got done.

But the problem still persists, and although isn\'t as bad, its still there! and is annoying the hell outta me! :(

My brother turned around and said if its doing that then one of ur alloys maybe buckled...... :? .......i hope its not that! :cry:

Any ideas anybody??

Cheers, Adam

P.s even if it is buckled, they finally allowed me to get a ton outta my 4-speed 1.2 8v corsa lol :lol: woooo, my previous tractor size wheels did not.... dunno why but they did! :D So they wont be coming off!

You should have gone back as soon as you realised the problem was still there!
