22's just mounted vibration at 60mph

Ok so i just had 22in Vossen CV3r rims mounted after 2 weeks of searching for a shop that would actually put them on i landed myself at Discount Tire where i was also sold my pirelli scorpion zero asimmetrico Tires as well. Long story short i noticed some vibration in my steering wheel around 60mph so i took the car back the following week said "it may need to be rebalanced i personally didnt balance them last time but i will this time" this is the store manager btw same guy who sold me the tires. After rebalencing I'm still noticing the vibration like right at 60mph it also seems to calm down slightly as i got it up to 80mph but I'm not for certain. Camaro family bless me with your insight!

Sounds to me like you might have a slightly bent rim.

Before going the bent rim route, I'd check the tires first make sure you didn't get a defective tire. Check for bulges or imperfections in the tread etc. And yes, don't rule out a possible bent rim either. You're running on literally thin sidewalls with 22" tires so there's like no cushion when and if you hit a pot hole. Hope this helps.

Were they road-force balanced? If not, that's a good first step.

Are they hub-centric? If they aren't get some hub rings to fill the space between the wheel's hub and your car's hub. Car is 66.9, not sure about the rims that you have.

Good article that explains road-force vs. spin balancing: http://www.tirereview.com/when-is-it-overkill/

Discount Tire is not a good place to get 22 inch rims mounted and blanced

You might have them break the bead and rotate the tire on the wheel 180. I have seen this fix vibration in the past. I had it work on my new front wheel on my Camaro also.

So the guy at dicount tire finally told me I don't have hub rings which I didn't even know I needed I bought the rims from someone on the site. So my next question is where do I go to find the hub rings?!

When they're the only place within 20 miles that will even mount tires of that size let alone have them in stock. Quite honestly dicount tire was better then the 4 other shops I went to and the pirelli scorpions they sold me were hundreds of dollars cheaper then every where else.

You just have to measure your hub and the hole in your rim and your'e good to go.
