Default Rims...........
I have a balance issue with my new rims I put on. They are aftermarket and I now have vibration at 20mph and 80+mph. The stealership said I might need a road force balance. Is this necessary and what does it include?

Thanks,
Tony P.

Guys, see these threads; sounds like you need to locate a shop that uses a Hunter GSP9700

Have had the same problem and road forced balance. Helped but did not cure. Waiting to put on a set of hub centric rings before going back to originals.
Good Luck
