    Default Steering problem with new rims.

    Morning all,

    About a week or 2 ago i bought a brand spanking new set of 18" AAS rims.

    Now heres the problem, say if i hit a little pot hole from the front right wheel then the steering wheel will pulse once to the right. If i hit a pot hole on the left, then it will pulse once to the left.

    Booked in a wheel alignment next week so im hoping that will fix it all up.

    Cheers

    Thats usually what happens..... I have 20's with a 225/30 on the front, I can feel a pebble if I run over it.

    There is no such thing as stupid questions, Only stupid people.

    Shitty roads in general is what pisses me off. But going down to Northland, in the left lane before bunnings half the lane is newer my car always pulls to the left a bit once i cross the line of the newer road. Yet it doesnt do it with other cars i tryed.
    With great cars, comes great drivers.
