I HAVE AN 06 525I AND PUT ON A SET OF 20'' TORK ICONS WITH HUBCENTRIC RINGS
I'M GETTING ALOT OF VIBRATION IN THE STEERING WHEEL FROM ABOUT 40 MPH TO 60 MPH AND ITS PULLING TO THE RIGHT
I'VE ALREADY HAD THEM BALANCED TWICE AND CAN'T SEEM TO GET THEM TO RUN RIGHT
WOULD I JUST NEED AN ALIGNMENT, AND IF I DO GET ONE, DO I HAVE TO GET IT AT BMW OR COULD I GET IT DONE AT A LOCAL SHOP

 

have u tired the car with the stock alloys do you still have the same problem? if so then its something else causing the problem, if not then check the hub centric spacers that you have by that I mean the plastic which sits between the inner wheel and the hub is one missing?

Tracking can be done at any proper tyre place with a laser 4WA

also turn you cap locks off buddy!

 

Put the stock wheels back on and only have a small amount of vibration at high speeds. Nothing like it is now. Right now my wheels is moving side to side at about 40 to 60 . no wheels locks on there and the hub centric rings are aluminum so i know they didn't crack or melt
I've had these things on and off 3 or 4 times already and no one can seem to figure out why this is happening. I originally had plastic rings on there and they melted and cracked because they were the wrong size.

 

Get your wheels checked, they could have been bent. And get your tires checked as well. One (or more) of them might be out of round.

 

If your steering wheel shimmys at high speeds with your old wheels then it is probably not your new wheels creating the prolem. A larger, heavier wheel will just amplify the original problem. I had the same problem on my old BMW and it turned out to be worn out control arm bushings. Do you also get vibration under braking?

 

-Bent wheels
-Bad alignment
-Bad wheel balance

Either of these or combination of these could be the culprit.

 

I had that same problem with my 530d! Mines have on those same icon wheels. This is what to do take off the wheels then get some Scotch Tape. Then wrap the tape around the hub about eight times. Then fold in the remanding tape on the inside of the ring. Do this and ALL YOUR PROBLEMS ARE GONE! HOPE YOU TAKE MY ADVICE

 

+1

It's gotta be one of those or a combination.

 

like the other guys say put back on your old wheels if you still got them and try it out.
I also had a very little vibration at 100km and I took my front off and put 2 ring of tape around the hub and then fitted the wheel back on and now no vibration at 100km.
