Juddering When Driving

Ive recently had my front tyres changed on my car had the balancing and tracking done aswell. (mind you the people who did it are arseholes the marked my alloys and refused blame).

all was fine for about 3 days, now i get loads of juddering on the wheel when im motorway driving is this a problem with the balancing?

could be ALOT of things, but from experience check the weights are all on the inside of your alloys, some careless balancers knock or break these off without noticing, resulting in and off balanced wheel

yep, more than likely mate. you could swamp the front / backs around and see if it's any better.

go get them re-balanced somewhere else and watch them do it - i've been places like kwik fit that are happy for you to do this... especially when they run it on the digital balancing machine. if that comes up "all zeroes" and you still have trouble it might be the driveshaft balancer...

Thanks guys

Went to ATS and they rebalanced them for me free of charge and they also told me that the marks the other company made on my rims are from where they tried to take the tyre off the rim the wrong way as they are reverse rims aparantly.
