Default Finally found out what my wheel wobble is!

After spending a small fortune and taking the car to a local RS guy he put the car up on the 2 poster and ran the car, the tyres are totally warped and don't run true.

Took it back to the place I bought the wheels from and they just changed the spigot rings and told me to try that, hasn't made a difference so it looks like it's the cheap-o tyres I bought with the wheels.

Hopefully they'll exchange them then I can be wobble free

I had this on a set of alloys i got for my Mk1 Fiesta about 12 years ago. They were cheopo remould tyres and were not round. They were fine on the back but the steering wobbled all the time when they were on ther front.
