Default Some advice please

Hi folks,

I have abit of a problem when I hit 60mph on an open road. The vibration is felt in the wheel and probably the whole car.

I just bought the car and it is lowered and on 19 spyders.

Is this normal or is it a balancing/alignment issue?

Ive attached a picture as Ive no idea how low the car is.

Many Thanks

It would be helpful if you could mention the year and specific model of your E60. Also tell us what brand and model of tires you have on your car (run-flat tires can sometimes cause a very harsh ride).

When the E60 is stock (whichever model you have) you should not have any vibration. Vibration is not normal. However, you said your car is lowered. That could possibly cause the vibration if not done correctly. As you say it could also be a wheel/tire balance or alignment issue.

I would suggest taking your car to a good wheel and tire shop and have them check your car out.
