drove with stock 16" wheels with no problems,added 20" wheels and now shakes at 55 to 60 mph.thought the balance was off.paid 97.00 to have tires and rims re-balanced and still the same problem.done some reading online and read about the rss system and thought that might be the problem,removed the fuse to the rss system and still the same thing.reading more,read that the 20" wheels may throw the calibration of the computer off is this true?my next move is to put my stock rims back on either until i figure something out or forever and put my 20's on craig's list to get my money back.any help from anyone is appreciated.thanx in advance.

Welcome to AF.

You know, the members here volunteer their time and expertise to help others. Sometimes we do not have all the answers to every question posted, and/or do not have the time to hang out here all day to provide immediate service.

If you do not get the answer you are looking for right away, do not be a jerk about it. This site is very useful and helpful for many people, yet has limited resources. Sometimes it takes a bit of TIME to get around to all issues.

For example, for your problem...... the new rim and tire off-set may be different than stock, placing increased strain on your suspension and steering. Look for worn/loose components, especially steering rack and tie-rod ends, but also ball joints and strut bearing plate.

You see, a helpful answer just took a bit of time......

So in future, please have some patience and common courtesy for the hard-working volunteers here and go easy on the sarcasm
