Hi Guys,

Quick question, I've just bought a set of these alloys fitted them to the car and it looks awesome! The only thing I have noticed is when I go over a bump/speed bump the car makes a bit of a judder. The wheels have a low profile but I don't believe that to be the issue. It almost sounds like something is loose or even that something is rattling about in the boot! (nothing is in the boot...) The issue is definitely to do with the new wheels as I never experienced it before on my 14" steelies.

Thanks,

mtempsch

The obvious, since you don't mention anything about these points: Do you have the correct type of bolts? Stock 180 alloys use a flat seat/shoulder while steelies, IIRC, use conical seats. Were they properly torqued on mounting? Have you checked them after driving for a while so that they aren't loose?

Since you mention it sounds like there is something rattling in the boot, have you checked the spare wheel cage is tightened up and the wheel brace isn't bouncing around in the rear panel?
