So i just got a front end allignment, before i got it the wheel shaked a lot at speeds above about 55mph or so, after i got it done it shakes less but it also pulls to the right when i punch the throttle, or when i get it up to about 3500rpm which is not good on the highway but its not a strong pull just a slight one that can be avoided if i have my hand on the steering wheel....... so im thinking that the 18" rims that i got with the car are bent.... anyone have a thought about this? and also i was wondering is there any way to get the 18's fixed? or should i just deal with it?

 

try changing your tires.... bald tires will do that

that, and if you think any rim is bent, its best not to drive on it[8D]

 

not only bald tires, but if you drive hard and wear your edges down on your tires, they will vibrate more. also have the balance checked on your rims, this will definatly cause steering wheel to wobble back and forth. i had a weight come off of a wheel before and it was very noticable.
as far as the bent rim... it really depends on the serverity, i mean if its slight you could fix it but once metal alloys are bent, they are never structurally as strong and terefore even having it bent back it would still be much weaker.

 

I'm honestly surprised that the shop would do an alignment without balancing the wheels first. Check back with them and see what exactly they did.

 

they just did the front end allignment thats all they said they did..... i am going to go back and see if i can get them to fix w/e the problem is b/c it is getting to be a pain in the @$$ and i'd rather not risk my butt for their possible mistake, ya know? but i think that if i bring the reciept with me when i do there they shouldnt have a problem just checking and fixing the problem i hope.... and the tires that are on there are brand new and there is little wear on them but the girl that owned the car prior to me couldnt // park very well so the rims are all scratched and dsjfadskfhlashdfjkh blahhhhhhh so yea thanks for the help guys
