I've recently fitted TT competition alloys to my tdi90.
I've had the wheels balanced 3 times now and cant seem to get rid of a very slight wobble at motorway speeds. I'd normally put this down to wheel balancing but you start to question at the 3rd attempt right?
So wheels aren't 100% perfect as youd expect for wheels that are in the range if 18 years old...but look more than good enough.
I tried swapping wheels around to no avail.
Do next train of thought is bolt length. I know the wrong length can cause issues but I'm trying to work out if the standard 27mm is about right for 7.5 wide wheels? I've actually got 32mm boots fitted on the back but I'm starting to think they might be too long and not able to torque up to spec.
For info I had pepperpots on previously...fronts with no spacer and 27mm bolts, backs with 5mm spacers and 32mm bolts.
