weird vibration?!?!?

Hey whats goin on guys, got a lil bit of a problem here. I'm getting a really bad vibration on my driver side. I dont know what it could be. i was told that its because my tires are not balanced, and maybe because the tires i have are too small for the car (205/55/16) I'm not sure, but I was just hoping that someone had some input or could maybe tell me what to check out first. Its getting annoying!! thanks for all the input!!! have a good weekend

Depending on your model year the wheels kept going up from 16 inch in 2001 to 17s later

The 2001-P came with P205/60/16 so if you are on the stock Acura rims then the 55 profile is not that much lower.

Wheel balance is obvious if the steering wheel starts shaking as you go faster -past 45mph
If it only does it on braking- its the brakes

Not unusual to run into potholes, rough roads, minor curb bang by spouse
Look at the rims for any damage.
Balance is cheap- like 10 bucks a wheel and will make a big differance

If its something bad- it will be ball joints most likely- if you want to worry about something!
