Hello, I have an 04 xjr w/20" sepang wheels and new Michelin tires. It has been aligned and rebalanced twice yet there is a slight vibration during acceleration. Any thoughts. Thanks a lot.

 

Scott,

If you feel this vibration in the steering wheel -- 2 questions arise:

1. Was the ballancing Road Force Ballancing?

2. Did the people who did the ballancing check that the wheels are unbent. This car has wheels easy to bend. This is usually correctable.

If you don't feel the vibration in the steering wheel it could still be 1 or 2, but probably in the rear only.

If you have round wheels and road force bal and rotating the tires changes nothing then report back as we have a whole new can of worms.
