Rims
Hey I need help. Why when it rains my RIMS cause a very bad vibration in the front. At least that is where I feel the vibration. What causes this problem???

Not your rims
It is odd that the problem only occurs when it is raining. I suspect that you may be experiencing hydroplaning/aquaplaning. This occurs when you are driving through standing water, and your tires cannot disperse the water quickly enough, your car will actually get lifted from the road and cause you to lose control for a few brief moments. THis is very likely the cause of your vibration feeling from the front, and not your rims. If it was occuring regardless of weather I would say you had a wheel balancing issue.
