Steering wheel shake after new tires
Hey there! I recently put on some new rears, went with the oem eagle sports for now, but since then my steering wheel vibrates like a vibrator. Mind you I have 15 mill spacers on the fronts and rears and adjustable coil overs. Should I be going to get them re done??

Yep, get the tires rebalanced.
Sometimes there are color coded dots on a new tire. They should be aligned with the valve stem - for proper balance. Also one of your new wheel weights could have come off. Dack

Oh great, I'll get it done ASAP. I'll have to check for the weights and the line, thanks for advice! Hopefully I'll update soon 😁

So wait...you only put on new rear tires, but the steering vibrates badly now? That makes no sense unless it's just a coincidence. Did they rotate your front tires? Anything can happen in a tire shop. Maybe the tech pulled the weights off the fronts to replace them until he realized they were only replacing the rears and never fixed it.

UPDATE: got all 4 tires rebalanced and a full alignment. All steering wheel shake is gone from 0-45 accelerating and decelerating. The moment it hits 50-60 it's shakes horribly. 70 and up it is fine. Not sure what's going on. Also CEL might came up for a powertrain issue. Not sure if it's related but I'll make a esperare thread on it if I can't find anything already posted. I do still have the manufacture warranty so I will call to see what can be done for me.
