How long after you had the tires rotated & balanced did the vibrating start? Are all air pressures set correctly & did you get a 4 wheel alignment? We'll start with the easy stuff first.

camlex Posted March 1, 2006 Author Share Posted March 1, 2006 I did go back to Discount tire and requested to recheck tire balance. He mentioned it was unbalanced. I will know for sure this evening. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW03ES Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Its very hard to balance the wheels on a Lexus since they're more sensitive to out of roundedness than other cars, in my experience its rare to have it done right the first time wheh you get new tires. Glad its all fixed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camlex Posted March 2, 2006 Author Share Posted March 2, 2006 They used different balance system. rather then 0.25,0.5,0.75,1.00 etc he was measuring 0.02. I don't know what you call this, but i tested with 90-95 No problem. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
