WTF is with Honda "Shakymobiles"

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by Nobody, Jan 25, 2006.

  1. Which one? Some have extremely light rims so the wheels shake with
    balancing errors less than what the typical tire shop targets. I always
    had to ask for tighter tolerances when getting the wheels balanced on my
    97 Civic HX. The rims were so light that I put a tire print on my
    forehead the first time I lifted a wheel off the car :)

    My Accord Hybrid has back-buster rims despite them being alloy. I doubt
    it will have wheel shaking problems but I wonder if the car would
    perform better with something lighter.

    I just bought a 2007 Civic. No shaking problems. When does it shake
    and how noticeable is it? Does it shake only at high speeds, or ?
