My mate who owned the car before me spent his entire life with the car getting the wheels balanced and replacing most of the front end to no avail. I'm beginning to think it's the 17" BK Alpina reps I keep hearing wobble stories about!!!

Will have to try some other rims

I've got the option of some MIM 1900 15" for not very much, but they will need a refurb. May go for them as I'm sick of the wheel shake

get some alloy spigot rings dude, wave the wobble bye bye :lol:

sorry to sound like a dim-wit but are you referring to what are currently green rings that fit onto the hub to centre the wheels on my car?

Where would I go for such items?

cheers!

they did mine with yoko's fitted balanced + new wheel bolts and lockers
for Ãƒ”šÃ‚£585 delivered to the door. all i had to do was bolt them on.

Called them and they no longer do them.
However i have decided to get a set of 18" Alpina reps from elsewhere.
Balanced with tyres bolts etc Ãƒ”šÃ‚£650 delivered, just requires the rear arches rolling.
