I have an 06 charger R/T with crossdrilled/slotted rotors with about 20K on them. About a month ago I bought some 22's. last week I started to feel this shaking in the wheel at about 45-65 mph. I had the tires rebalanced twice already and had hub centrics put on. The shaking is still there. When I brake I don't feel any shaking so I don't know if the rotors are warped or not. I do hear some squeaking at times. But I think it's coming from the rear rotors. I had the car aligned yesterday and the tow was way off but correcting that has not solved the shaking problem. Don't know if the tire shop did a high speed balance or not. I have new strut rods and lower control arms. the tie rods were changed out 12K ago. Could the rotors be warped, even if they don't shake when I brake? or is it the balance on the wheels? I need some help here. Thanks

Just had them rotated and I think the shaking is gone. Don't get it though. Just bought these wheels recently. could I have bent the wheels???

You will need to get it balanced again. Find a shop that uses a Hunter machine. It cost a little more, but well worth it. 20" and up wheels are a bit harder to balance.

It's called Road Force Balancing, but make sure they check the wheel to see if it's out of round.

I like that Maggie looks real good sittin that loooow!!!
