That second one looks pretty cool. Looks like he's got an S4 or Rs4 badge on it though

A question about my rims that I just bought. I had the rims cone ringed to match my previous rims so that my car wont vibrate anymore but I do still get a small vibration once i go around 140 km/h. I am not sure if it was because the cone ring was not done perfectly. The mechanics did say there are no more problems with the rim fitting my car as the test drove my car after cone ring my car.

Has anyone come across this kind of situations?

The car looks good. Keep up the good work.

But did they test it up to 140k? What you suspect sounds right to me, could be a few mm out. Normally they use spiggot rings, plastic or metal rings that go in the back of the wheel to tie them up to the hub.

Where your wheels custom made?

KH8602 · 05-27-2006, 08:05 PM

It's not custom made. Before the centering was out so they had to put a cone rings. I might think that its a few mm out. But I need to check again with the tyre mechanics.

KH8602 · 05-27-2006, 08:06 PM

The mechanics tested it to around 160 km/h. They said it was perfect. Probably low profile tyres makes more vibration?

Randomjim · 05-28-2006, 07:32 AM

Yea that could be it. How often do you drive over 140k anyway.

Once a week where I travel around the highway.
