I recently changed out the rear tires on my 2011 GT3 because of a small leak in the driver's side. Tried getting away with just swapping the one, but realized it drove like poo so I switched out the passenger as well....Michelin Super Sports.


While balancing the passenger wheel/tire, we noticed a very slight bend on the inside lip, which we assume I've been driving on for quite some time. Yesterday, after both tires were installed, I got the car up to, and over, 95 mph on the freeway, at which time I experienced a significant shake from the rear. What are the chances that this is just a balancing/re-balancing issue as opposed to the bent wheel causing the problem?


And as a side question: does anyone have a stock, rear wheel for sale?


Thank you,

I'd have the balance checked again. You could have lost a weight.

 

I did check the weights quickly, but didn't have time to see if the ones on the backside of the wheel had come off. Gonna try re-balancing again tomorrow and go from there.
