I started a new thread cause I think will generate some response so here goe's. It was brought out that those who purchased the winter tire package should check the wheel balance. I did just that and found that the wheels were in fact out of balanced. 3-wheels by .25 and 1-by .115 . I recomend that those who purchased in this winter tire package should check there balance as soon as possible so as not to hurt their front ends. also if you have the full wheel cover from hubcapcity , the C.V.P.I. cover remove them yourself as oppose to having the tire guy do them as he damaged one of the covers in his rush to remove the wheels. :argue:

had my snow tires/wheels checked out like you have, but I don't notice any shaking of any kind on the highway which would indicate the need for balancing. And just to add my thoughts here, I don't think there would be anything to worry about unless they were so far out of balance that you felt the car shaking at any certain speed while driving.

.....just some food for thought;)
