smooth1 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 It could be several reasons: 1- slightly warped brake rotor 2- brake glaze 3- tire movement 4- uneven tire pressure 5- unbalanced tire 6- worn suspension components 7- brake pad issues 8- a combination of any of these.

Hopefully your front end is okay also and you don't have a busted control arm or damaged tierods. Take it to Tire Kingdom and let them check it out... any of these repairs need attention. good luck ;) oh and he forgot BENT WHEEL :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(# 3 on the list) All rims have a certain amount of "movement" in them. When a rim is bent or out of round, then the tire movement becomes out of spec and then needs to be replaced. :P ..... LOL!!!!
