my OEM wheels have stickies too and those are balanced fine. i just think that its because the kid that was doing it is new. he told me hes only been there a month but he used to work for skip barber racing, but we already know ppl that used to do that, dont we? ---

Definately seems like one or more bent wheels. I had a shake above 40 but once I got a different set of tires it went away. It happened with two sets of wheels (same tires and I bought wheels because I didnt like the stock ones). ---

i stopped in before work today. they said that it can be caused by tire lube not drying out and because of humidity that we had yesterday or something along those lines. im going after work to see if they can rebalance them ---
