Just had my front wheels balanced and there is still lot of wobble in the steering. Very annoying on the motorway. Any ideas on how to improve this. Cheers guys

Does Anyone have pictures of 165/50/15 on 7j wheels as ive been offered a set of Federal Formoza's in this size. Are they any good? Enough stretch to low a little more but still safe. Ive been on tyre stretch website but want to see if any of you guys are running them. Thanks Tom
