If you don't experience the shaking with a different set of wheels, then it's your wheels that need to be rebalanced. Might want to look into getting hubcentric rings to see if that'll help alleviate the problem.

if hubcentric rings are what i think they are, then i have them (the rubber center piece on the inside of the wheel so it fits on the hub...that thing that comes with after-market wheels.....if thats what your talking about, then i have them.

another weird thing...NTB, after they found i had a bent rim, told me my wheels were aligned and balanced...but a gas station later said the alignment was fine but 3 of the wheels were out of balance.

I'm thinking my next step should be to fix the rim and re-align and re-balance everything and then see how it is. However, if im still having a problem...what would my other options be?
