I will take it in for wheel balancing today and report back.



I noticed that some say the vibe will disappear after some miles - did anyone have this experience and after how many miles ?
I would say you start seeing a noticeable difference at 5-7k miles. When I put Driveguards on the car at 10k miles I immediately noticed less of the shimmy also. This leads me to believe that quite possibly these cars are developing flat spots on the tires due to time in transit and sitting on the dealer's lot. Is it possible that RFTs are prone to flatspotting?
