Vibration - Could be This!!..
ok so one day while I was driving, I noticed my steering wheel was vibrating a lot more than usual.. it was around 50mph.. i didn't think anything of it at first.. but then it kept gettin' worse.. so i thought it was because i over torqued my wheels.. well i went to check it out and the vibration was because my front tires were eaten away!!! I was riding on the damn metal threading! so in case you guys are all worrying about anything else, check that as well.. i thought it was my rotors too.. so i was gonna get new rotors, but then i realized the pedals weren't pusating as i braked, lol ... just thought i'd share my little knowledge i came across

Hey, was it inner wear I am hearing? Man, I am having the same problem here too, bro.
Someone here told me that we should go to a shop that specializes in mod car that also does alignment. The problem is I am still struggling to find such a shop around here. Hope there is one in your area.

Hi there, I saw your other post(s) too and was wondering the same thing...where do they have this type of shop that specializes in modded cars that do alignments, here in the MD/DC/VA area??? I hope you find one 'cause we'll all need to find this place soon...if I find anything I'll definitely let you know...maybe we should post this in the NELOC forum?

there's no such shop that i know of in my are either.. although i've been pointed to a place by the shop that does custom suspension (ie. airbags, coilovers, etc.) and they said that this certain shop does a fantastic job, so i'll let you know how it goes after i get my new tires haha

hey guys, I have a 99 gs 400. I've spent 900+ on rotors, new brakes, 700+ on new tires, and for some reason my steering wheelm still vibrates... the whole car just feels off. It starts at about 50mph then stops vibrating when i accel. then starts up again when the car begins to decel. What could that be? Is this a common problem on 2nd gen gs?
