Exclamation The Mistress has a mild vibration...

I just got 4 new Firestone SH 30's, new front break rotors and pads, and had a small inside rim ding repaired. I am still noticing a mild vibration at highway speeds. Any ideas? I am thinking maybe I spun a weight loose. But if not, what else might cause this. I'm due an oil change soon, I will likely have the tires reballanced. They were good when last I checked last week.

Thanks,

If you treated her right, she wouldn't need the vibration

check the tire pressure in all tires....alignment could be the other cause as mentioned...

Have you tried hub-centric rings? These are supposed to eliminate any vibrations and they're cheap on Ebay. I have them on my wheels and they're so smoooooth, but I didn't really have much vibration to begin with.

Take the vibrator out of her ass, and give her some old fashion lovin
j/p the hubcentrics sound like a good idea, either that or alignment, these bitches are really touchy about the way their legs line up.
