Wrong size hubrings?

Admir328xiCT · 10-09-2011, 12:45 PM

Local shop installed my TSW wheels. I\'m getting a vibration at 60-70 mph.

Only thing I noticed was my front left wheel is about a half inch out more then the rest... Could this be that they put wrong size hubring for that wheel ?

mine have never been messed with but i swear it looks like one side sticks out further than the other.

Tsw is a good brand, I would go back and double check with the shop that did the work for you, maybe they missed something, on the vibration side just have them check for hub ring installation and balancing, on the part where the wheel sticks out just double check the off set compared to the apposite side. Good luck! And let us know the conclusion.

It could be your alignment that makes you think one side sticks out more. For example one side may have more negative camber so it would have more clearence between the fender lip and the tire.

The shop failed to install hub rings period. Issue fixed quick with hubrings
