Need advice on fighting the dreaded steering wheel vibration

Yeah the g force just slip those panties right off

Just wait until the next Top Gun comes out...

Delayed a year due to COVID.

@AeroF16, how does the G-string do with G forces? Enough of the tire stuff 😂🤣😅🤣😂😅.

 

[AeroF16]

But you can indeed balance out the force from the road. Again, that's the whole idea with Road Force balancing.

I'm going to agree to disagree about that but I respect your knowledge and expertise, seeing as you own one haha. We're just saying two different things.

Now let's talk about boobs!

Hellcatcfp, you do know that the plans for an electric Challenger have been shelved, right?
Turns out that the Battery Charger had more appeal. Much more.

Anything up to 5Gs is pretty tolerable, not a lot of extra effort involved.

5-7.5Gs takes a little effort. Most untrained people pass out around here.

7.5 - 9.0+ sucks. You are literally fighting for your life to stay awake and not pass out. Why not just let off the G? Because your enemy is trying to kill you. You need to max perform your aircraft, up to your body limits, to kill as quickly as possible.

Took Hellcat to get tires looked at for my vibration issues at 80 mph. They balanced each again and happy to say vibration is gone, or at least so minimal I cannot tell. So, I am assuming every time I rotate I will also get them balanced as well. Will keep thread updated at i get more miles on them.

Good news!

Did they rotate the tires at all or just balance? Rotating a bad tire from the front to the rear is what made my vibration change significantly (for the better). Replacing the two rear tires is what made it go away completely.

I told them not to as the dealership already did the rotation. They said Hunter Elite machine wasn't needed for any of them. Said a couple needed some weights and that was that. Back to smooth again (for now 😅🤣😂).

That's great that they were able to get you squared away. I would continue doing business with them for tires!

I took my car in for the V86 recall. Pre-purchased 3 oil changes for $165, which was a great deal ($55/ea). I'd usually do this myself but was a few hundred miles away from needing one and they were going to have the car anyways.

I pick it up and he tells me about the complementary tire rotation. Really nice of them, other than the fact that I had rotated the tires like 7 days prior! I haven't looked to see how they rotated them, hopefully I don't have to re-do it this weekend. Luckily I can still see the wax from the white crayon I used to mark them on the inside of the wheel.

My 2 new tires almost look and feel like completely different tires to the touch. My old tires, which are 3 months old, seem very "hardened" compared to the new tires.

Not sure if that's normal or not with such minimal usage at such a young age.

My PS4Ss changed pretty radically from their virgin state to after having driven on them.

Those first couple of heat cycles have a noticeable affect on them. The compound goes from feeling almost like wet gum to normal tire-like.


And was that you pulling the Gs in the amusement park ride?

Noticed the PS4s change like that as well. Tire place is nice and seem to know what they are doing. Will get tires balanced each time I get them rotated, perhaps that is the answer?

Just a shot in the dark, but my 06 SRT Charger had this issue. Turned out to be the inner tie rod ends. Went with MOOG and that fixed it.

@AeroF16, my vibration is gone but I do notice at 80-85 mph more road force is noticable/felt. Perhaps to be expected vs 65 mph, but just an observation. Maybe a balance issue as well?

My thoughts are the balance changes where you feel the vibrations.

Everytime I had them balance the tires, the vibration changed a bit with regards to the speed I noticed it at.

Funny, I typed this up earlier and deleted it, hoping you just had found your happy spot with your car. My car is perfect, at all speeds, so it is attainable.

Thought had crossed my mind for sure.

I spoke to Pirelli today about my A/S tires. They said they will auto warranty 2 of the 4. So I just go to Discount, have them find the 2 worst tires, replace them, then send the others back for warranty.

I'd do the same with your MP4S tires, no reason to settle.

I was almost hopeless about resolving the issue, now I can't believe how smooth my car rides. Don't settle.
