[QUOTE="zan, post: 1056297, member: 9632"] i believe its spacer that they added. to change your wheel offset more towards outside. well, problems with steering vbratiing has only one thing relating to it. poor or improper balancing. 6 points to remember :- 1stly, make sure the tyres are all new which came with the alloy wheel, not used ones. its hard to justify bad rims using used tyres. 2ndly, make sure the wheels are properly balanced on the INNER side and OUTER side of the rims. certain rims have no lips, therefore need to paste weight on the inner wheel itself. 3rdly, bigger wheels are in fact have more inertia than smaller wheels therefore little vibrations can really be felt but still, such problems shud not incurred at all with new rims. 4thly, make sure the rims are covered by warranty. keep all receipts as well as warranty card. take precautions by sending warranty card to the manufacturer to avoid it being null and void. 5thly, do try to balance all wheels at some other shops, preferably recommended by zthians. if ur at seremban, try ah cheng at rahang. he's capable of doing perfect on wheel balancing with many years experience. try also, swapping the rear ones to the front. it may help. 6thly, lift up ur car at the front using jacks, then start engine and engage gear. dont forget to apply parking brake, and block rear tyres movement. see if the wheels spins smoothly or not. if not, its manufacturer's poor QC. where the holes for the wheel studs had been machined offset centre. in short, check 1) balancing 2) tyres condition 3) the wheels itself - defective.
