[horgantrevor]

hi i got the c36 tracked today and front wheels rebalanced

but i still have a shudder at 60 miles per hour now i have had the wheels balanced twice just to be sure

its a weard one and a head scratcher

i have checked all the shocks springs and so on its on the passenger side

any ideas

Dodgy tyre?

Can you drive through it and it goes completely?

 

[horgantrevor]

yes it goes away just after and before 60 nothing only at 60 ish i have the shudder

thx i forgot about that some times tyres can do this

Take the wheels somewhere else to be balanced... typical balancing issue.

I agree, you can also get them balanced on the car at some garages.

Long long time ago I had a Humber Sceptre which had a vibration as it went through 60 mph. No amount of wheel balancing cured it. The clue was I could feel it quite strongly through the gear lever. It turned out to be a worn propshaft bearing.

Odd non-matching tyres are both a problem and can be dangerous because of different grip characteristics, this could be the problem anyway for the out of balance effect. So change asap to avoid other problems with different braking characteristics too.
