I just wanted you guys to know that I took my car in to the stealership, and had them Road force Ballance my new rims and tires. I had a shake that couldnt be tamed. The place where I got my tires put on just didnt have a hunter road force machine. The other places that did wanted $40 a tire to balance and $90 for the alignment. Sooo, I took to Acura dealer.

I'll be damned!!! It worked like a charm!! Not even as much as a shimmy up to 90mph... I was just excited and wanted to let you guys know!!

Have a good Weekend!!

 

Glad it worked out for you. There is no equal to that balancer.

 

Nice. Road force ftw!

It's only Thursday.

 

Thanks for the tip. There is a Kauffman tire place around the corner who does it for $20 per tire. Might look into it.

 

hunter machines for balancing and alignment are the best. I only go to shops that have these machines

 

how much did it cost from the stealership?

 

this.

 

Went down to Kauffman this morning and asked them to road force just the fronts, as I was trying to isolate the vibration. Car was in there a looonnng time. The tech balanced all four, even though I only paid for fronts. Immediately hit the highway and its like driving on glass. $40 later, vibration is gone.
I would def. recommend this before replacing expensive parts.

Glad it worked out for you!

 

Hit and run thread starter eh?

 

LMAO hahaha Not hit and run thread starter.... I had to go out of town. LOL Dealership charged me $160 for all 4 tires and alignment.

 

How do find out which installer uses hunter roadforce machine?

Thanks

Having MAJOR issues!!!! I need a hub ring to center my wheel to my hub? Has anybody ever heard of such a thing. My wheels are being thrown off center bc the "factory" hub is specifically designed to fit the GD factory rims... So I need a.... THING to fit my hub and center my wheel to the rim... NEED help and need it fast.. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!

 

...and WTF us going on with the site?? I cant do anything....

 

Try this:

Why do you guys hate the dealership so much.You do understand that cars from the factory are built to perform how they were intended to perform.When you add all those upgrades you destroy what the car was intended to do.Go ahead and add a two hundred dollar part to a 30k car, thats your problem. Don't get made when your "modified" car breaks down!!!!if you want performance than buy performance, if you want comfort than buy comfort!Don't get mad when your car breaks when you add cheap parts to it!

 

this is scaring me why cant i quote anyone lol

 

LOL @ lamarski. Who is talking about breaking down? The post is regarding vibrations with aftermarket wheels that cost usually welll over $1000. If shit isnt balancing right its frustrating. I know because im going through it now.07TLfixitup..hub rings probably wont solve your problem. I know because ive been there. Save your money.

 

LMAo... settle down "dealer Lover" lol... We hate the dealerships bc everytime we go to the svc dept with a problem, the "service" writer A.) never knows WTF is going on with anything, B.) Lies, C.) Lies more, D.) Always lies about how much and how "difficult" the part is to locate and remove, E.) NEVER has the damn thing fixed in a timely manner, What number was I on? Oh and 6.) If its not under warranty they RAPE you, deny said rape then LIE to you and try to convince you that said rape wasnt even rape at all!! That you totally consented to F*&$%#G yourself out of your hard earned MONEY!!

Did I mention they dont know "what the problem is either? I feel like EVERY acura dealer should be on this site to LEARN these problems and fixes!! Hell, they could maybe even offer ways & fix's that WE dont know... OMFG!!!! I'm on a rant sorry.

Lamarski,..... idk what to even say to you now...lol...but you go ahead and whine..lol..

Thanks for the link!!!


LOL... ^^... anyway so f this wont help, wtf do I do to fix it?

 

Btw... do you (or anybody for that matter) know the the hub size of our cars? More importantly mine? I guess I could look up the rim and find out the hub bore size, but 07 TL base 5AT hub size???

 

our centerbore size is 64.1 Most aftermarket wheels from japan are 73.1

 

Danger, THANK YOU!!! Seriously.. The cb on these rims are 72.6. So I Really appreciate it!!

....btw... is that your middle name?? lmao

 

I need a couple of opinions also...

wont work. You need ones with inner bore being 64.1 and outer bore being 72.6.

Also no its not my middle name. It'd be awesome if it was though.

 

Lmfao...


Ahhhhh... gotcha!! lol... I'm a dummie...

 

Wait a minute....????
