North Shore, Anyone got 17-18" wheels.

Car shakes at high speed just want to check with other wheels to see if the problem is to do with wheels that are on it atm.

Can pay just to borrow for hour.

Cheers

Check thrust arm bushes.

Is it a steering wheel shake at high speed? what are your wheel specs?

Ive fixed many E34 shimmies by having best wheels on front ie swap fronts and back around.

[Lukeprusher 13]

Steering wheel and whole car, from 90km plus,

Ive swapped front to back, wheel alignment and wheel balanced.

18inch.. 8inch wide with 235 40 18 tyres.

First i thought was the bearings in front wheel but wasnt and then thought it would be thrust arm bushes but replaced them and nothing changed

Checked for bad steering box/rack and tie end rods?

Are the wheels decent OEM ones with the correct hub (ie, not fitted with rings)?

[Cab 148]

Either your new wheels didnt come with hubcentric rings, orr it could be shocks of all things. I had a steering rattle above 100kmh with crap shocks, then changed them and it went away.

Hey man, Check if the centre bore rings are still there. I have a feeling they were lost during last wheel balance.

Just rock some hub centric insulation tape.

Then check the thrust arm bushings.
