Still having tire problems

[fullthrottle52]

Xvboxst3 - I never changed the wheels. I only changed tires. Still have original 18 in wheels that have always been on the car. The only time i changed wheels is when I tried a set off another car. They were 17's and had different tires on them but they did run out pretty smooth at all speeds.
I am now going to go back tomorrow and have the tires looked at where I bought them. They want to check one more time for out of round tire or balance off again. After that i don't know where I go with this. I certainly can't drive it like it is. I have invested so much time and money at this point I am considering selling the car.

Thank you for everyone's help.

I feel your frustration . A few years back I went through something similar with my boxster that almost caused me to launch it over a cliff . In any case, as a last step in the process of elimination, is it possible for you to road test another set of oem 18 inch wheels and tires ?

Should have bought a spyder with the vibration resistant option code X414.


If the car was error free before the tires it's hard not to indite them no matter what the balancer says. I had a set of goodyears once that vibrated as soon as they went on. I was given the same information as you "it's not the tires". As soon as the car received a fresh set of tires the problem stopped.
