is there, and can they be changed? i get a very slight shimmy, at 65 and higher. have had tires balanced 3 time/places..... wheels look good,(no dings etc)........ now dont be telling me to keep it under 65 either..... sammy hagger's song comes to mind, " i cant drive 55"..... anyway, just trying to narrow it down............. any thoughts?

Is this something that just started or was it always there? Need tire info make model size.

 

im half embarrassed to say, it's been there for a while. seems to be getting worse. i run Good Year, Intregrity P226-60-R16. 60% front, 50% rear. 50,000 miles on them.... 90% highway driving...... like i say it's been there for a while, but really slight. have hadwheels balanced, and inspected3 times at different places over past 8 months.i'm feeling a little something in the steering, and wondered if maybe that might be my shimmy problem.......tx slo

ok .. you got it, i wont tell you that.[sm=icon_quiet.gif]

my suggestion is .. err .. keep it in the city streets and dont drive it on the Freeways?[sm=icon_rofl.gif]

 

If you can get one of your GM dealer buddys to help you out with an Electronic Vibration Analyzer or EVA for short, it can help determine where vibration is coming from. Request tsb #00-03-10-007G it may help. try setting air pressure at 30 psi cold see if anything changes.

 

thanks slowroll, i'll do that eva thing..... also lower pressure to 30lbs cold, though you know im one to have the sneakers full. i'll give it a try on your say, and get back .....tx again
