But the feel is still kinda jittery. It's even worst when driven uphill.
Is this a balancing problem, or a hubcentric ring concern? Tire size is still the same, the only difference is that it's a different brand tire (from Yokohama to Bridgestone).
Sorry to go off-topic here, but I'm really concerned about this. I haven't had the opportunity to take it back to the tire shop to get it rebalanced (if in fact that is the problem). But what if it isn't? What if I did get it rebalanced and the problem still persists?
Is it different tires on one side, just the fronts, just one.... ?
It might be a balancing issue, it may be a bent rim issue, and it can be that the hub centric...
