I am seriously baffled.
2010 TSX with 9,500 miles.
When I had the 19's on at around 800 miles I noticed a faint wobble but nothing too serious so I didn't do anything about it. I took the 19's off and the wobble was slightly there but I didn't think twice again.
Fast Forward >> 8,500 miles I decide it must be my rotors (now sitting on lowering springs and stock wheels) I get an alignment and new rotors + pads in the front.
It felt good for a few days and once again now at 65mph+ I feel this harsh wobble.

Anybody have the same problem or some advise for me?
As stupid as it sounds I guess it's just this on top of all the problems making me want to sell the car, the price of ownership has been more money than my BMW!!

 

i have 7500+ on mine and noticed some vibration on the front driver side. i plan on going to the dealer sometime within the next week. i have to get my brakes changed.

 

Well I'm afriad anything I go in for they will just say "because your lowered". I am going to balance the front wheels and see if that does anything... if not I will ask my mechanic to check it out and if he finds nothing then I guess I will go back to stock suspension which will probably lead to me wanting to sell the car since I hate stock ride height, lol.

 

get your wheels balanced. wobble while at speed usually indicates that something is out of wack with your wheels.

 

I'm guessing since these are 19" wheels that they are jobber wheels. Put your OE factory wheels back on and I'm sure your vibration will be gone.

 

My OEM wheels are on, good job reading!
Jobber wheels? No they were OEM RDX wheels with high end tires.
Wobble at speeds does usually mean that I know, but my confusion was how I did start to feel it even when I had the 19's on.. then switched wheels.. but I'm going to give it a shot this weekend.

 

damnn, good luck!

 

Sorry to hear that Rev Run. Try process of elimination.

1) Rotate tires front to back, make sure you torque the stock lug nuts 80 ft/lb.

2) Check wheel balance

3) Lift car up on hoist, look at suspension parts for anything loose parts (from installing springs).

Good luck

 

FWWI, I had front end wobble issues many times over the years, and all of them ended up related to tires or balance issues. Even of the balancing machine showed "zero" does not mean that your tire/wheel is perfectly balanced: sometimes the machine is no calibrated, other times they input the wrong width measurements in the machine, etc.

So far I had luck with the Hunter road force machine. So you can find a good tire shop that has this machine and give it a try.

 

^^yup what they just said
