I recently replaced my TRX tires and wheels with a set of 17 x 8 BBS RX wheels, spacers and Pirelli P7000 Supersport P215/45WR17 tires. Can anyone explain why I get a minor vibration at 45 and 85 mph?

Had the same problem with a new mecedes CLK 430, tires were changed (Michelins) 3x's, high speed on the car balances etc etc etc. Nothing helped sold the car. Interestingly enough I had the same car, a 99' and it did not have this problem at all with the same brand/type of tires. Find out if other cars like yours have this problem, if not have the dealer check control arms, bushings, wheel bearings etc. Good Luck
