Hi there
i finaly got the misses alloys on her car
MKIV T REG 1.0L
now i had them balanced ,
but there seems to be a bit of vibration between 60 - 70 mph
which i know is normaly caused by un balanced wheels

now i am going to get the tracking looked as as i thought this might be causing the problem , but i have never heard of tracking causing vibration

would it be worth getting the balancing check again as when i put the wheels on there was only about 15 psi in each tyres when they was balanced up at the garage , would that affect them ?

Also the vibration sometimes seems like just slight but other times it feels like the space shuttle coming back into orbit lol

I'd take it get and get it checked, they may have messed up.

Just to check, but was this a problem at all before the alloys?
