Vibrations 90MPH +

GTATX · 03-23-2021, 08:39 PM

So I recently changed wheels to Titan 7 TS5. Installed sport cup 2 connect tires but i always had vibration at 90 mph plus. I spoke with Michelin and changed tires to 4s and still vibration is about the same or worse. I am at a loss right now what to do? Wheels are new and no hop, bend or shimmy nothing. Tires are brand new and don't know what else can I do at this point. Please advise, any suggestion will be appreciated. Thanks

I'm running 30 psi cold right now maybe too low will go up to 33 psi cold and see if any difference.

So 12 balances since April, 4 tire swaps and new wheels and vibration is still an issue. I don't know what components on car can be checked at this point.

Shot in the dark but what about your alignment? Or check your struts.

And do you feel the vibrations in the entire vehicle or just in the steering column?

Alignment is fine per bmw. It's steering column and more under body. Bmw is gonna check suspension on Friday to see if anything is wrong there.

So another discount tire re calibrated their machine and balanced them again. 3 out of 4 tires were out of balance even though balanced last evening. So far up to 110 mph no vibration so hoping it's resolved now.

Do any of you have spacers?

GTATX · 04-05-2021, 11:12 PM

I don't have spacers. I'm almost good to go except very minor at 95-100 mph. Going to find another shop as discount can't make it 100%. Thx

Yes i did. It was an issue with the car switching to transport mode by it self and my exhaust had a clamp that was rubbing on the chassis once the car was lowered.

Now it ride like a champ.

Well what can i say.....had the Hunter road force completed today on all 4 wheels and wow, there was the issue. Both fronts were way out (i mean way, way out with weights in the wrong places and to boot, the tires are out of shape. The rears were not too bad and were changed to just in tolerances. The journey home was much better and discussing the next steps with the place i bought the wheels from to get the front tires replaced so i can get this baby back to where she should be. A great exercise and thanks again budy!!! This forum is such a great source of brilliant information.....my only negative is that you lot cost me a lot of money with upgrades

I may have to get my balance checked because I've noticed something similar. I only notice it when I'm cruising down the interstate at like 90+ as you guys have stated. It's really not that bad but it's just something I've noticed. It's like a wobbly sensation. I've been just tuning it out since it's only at high speeds but once I get new tires I will make sure alignment and balance is perfect.
