There has got to be an answer for this vibration issue!!!

I would not mind paying a little extra for someone to take my wheels and tires off to figure out how to make it all work. I think that I got rid of most of my vibration, but I am not sure whether the existing vibration is just caused from going from 17" to 19" wheels.

If the wheels are defective, that is one thing. However, I think that there are a lot of other issues that are causing the problem. Wish there was a step by step checklist. The problem is that there are few people qualified to even understand what to look for.

Do a search on the forum. I read something where someone had a vibration issue because the replica wheels didn't have the proper spacers or something. Terms like hub centric were used as well. It was mentioned that vibration started after 30mph.
