Vibration

Ok I looked them up. Yes I do have them they are plastic rings that came with the wheels.

Haha sorry just getting to details now. If using them then the wheel should be centered on the hub plus lug nuts center also. I'm scratching for ideas to find it so does it vibrate worse under hard WOT acceleration or no change? Is it just 60-65 mph on a cruise speed or does it start again at any other speed?

My thought is tires aren't balanced correctly if its just speed not acceleration. I would find out if they are road force balanced or not on the machine. I've had one shop balance my tires on a road force machine and every tire would vibrate somewhere between 60-70. Took all 3 cars to a new shop with a brand new machine and the vibration went away.

I've not held it to the floor when getting to speed. It's just been normal acceleration. It is primarily the 60 to 65 range. It seems to ease up and go away after 70 and faster.

Ok got to try wot from 50 and it has a slight vibration at 60 but nothing like cruising speed got up to 80 it was smooth

If it's only that range from 60-65 it's exactly what my tires did due to a ok balance machine. Found the newest one in town and re balanced no more issues. Call around town and find out when the machine was last calibrated. Most popular brand is hunter

Ok I'll try that tomorrow thanks. I don't understand how they didn't do it on the front though.

Can't find anyone around who has a road force balancer. Did talk to a tire shop they advised me to get up to speed put it in neutral and see if the vibration was still there. If so it should be a tire issue if not drivetrain. I did that and it is still there in neutral.

Yup tires. Weird how it's just feeling on the back but then again the springs could transfer more vibration of the torsion bars. Putting in neutral doesn't do much beside free up tranny. The rear including shaft is still spinning along with front stuff. Try a bigger town that's close by they should have one.

I know this is an old thread but I been busy and did t get back. Just FYI Atturo trail blade mt's suck on tahoe's and probably everything else. I've had them road force balanced and every tire shop I dealt with about this said these tires are terrible. They are hard to balance and separate easy. So stay away from them and thanks for the help fellas

I generally stay away from anything thats isnt a typical brand (mastercraft, general, falken). Off brands tend to be a 50 50 shot if they are decent or suck horribly in some general area. Ill get used tires from a local shop before i buy a brand ive never heard of before.
