Problem with rims. Need help.

[wgaughan]

Hey guys, im having a problem with my new rims. They're 17". When i put them on my cars started shaking between 60 and 80 mph. I thought maybe they just needed balanced so i took them to the shop. They were pretty unbalanced so i thought they would stop shaking. But they still do. Only my steering wheel shakes but its very annoying to drive. Any suggestions? Thanks

get a bigger tire, meaning thicker sidewall, go for 45 series tires instead of the low profile 40 series

do you have hubcentric rings? If no, try some.

What are hubcentric rings? I dont really want to buy new tires cuz these are new. If theres something else to do, i want to try it. Thanks guys.

where is a good place to buy rings from?
no cones, do you know what the hub size is in mm?
i need to get a set that fits on my volks but nobody around here has them :(

Celica has a 54.1mm hub. Most aftermarket wheels will require hub rings.
