Default rear tire problem

ok im getting this bad shake from one of my tires in the rear. I had them balenced and it continues. I noticed a funny wear in my tire, but this seem all to much for a funny wear. I can hear the tire as i move and the faster i go the worse it gets and its killing me. im just wondering if it could be anything else. it almost feels as if my lugs are loose or a bent rim but lugs are tight and rim is good. thanks
PS. the wheels in the sig are different I now have 16 in rota C8's with hancook ventus

Have you tried using a different set of wheels and see if it still does the same thing? Might also want to take a better look at your wheels studs as well.

it could be a number of things....

recheck the balance. (bring to another shop...their machine could be off spec)


check your alignment. out of spec camber and toe can cause wierd tire wear


check your rim for any warps or bends


check your shocks for any leaks

My wife's integra used to sing when it got up to speed. The treads had a funny wear pattern from not rotating the tires throughout the life of the tire along with bad alignment. Replaced the rear set and the noise went away.

I would say either it needs to be rebalanced, or you need the hubcentric rings. Do you have hubcentric rings already?

PM cashis eg8
he can get plastic ones which are better than metal ones cuz they won't corrode or rust onto the hubs of the car...
