Alignment will not cause a noise...directly. It may cause tires to wear irregularly to cause a noise. Run your hand over the tire tread. is it smooth?Maybe the rear wheels were overtightened and the bearings are shot.
If they wobble and your steering wheel moves back and forth, it is usually a bad tire (s).
If you are getting a noise as you describe it is usually uneven chopped wear of tires. Or bad bearing(S).
Rotating them every 5-8000 miles should keep them wearing evenly if the alignment is good. If they alignment is out, they may wear abnormal regardless of rotation and may make noise. Rotating abnormally worn tires will shift the noise if they are the cause.
Balancing a good tire keeps the tire from vibrating at various speeds.
Bearings in most cases would need replacement.Your description makes me think tires and or bearings.
Or you could just check to see if there is anything inside the rim like gravel or dirt, or in North Dakota, snow. i know this for sure only happens when driving faster like on a highway, it happens to me quite a bit and the shaking is caused because there is more dirt stuck on one side of the rim than the other and causes your tire to become unbalanced
What else can I help you with?
Why does steering wheel wobble not car but steering wheel when wheels are straight?
The steering joints and connections are worn and need replacing Actually, the most likely problem is the tires. They may just need balancing. Sometimes the belts in the tires separate which causes a wobble. high/low spots in tires also causes a wobble. A bent rim can cause a wobble. Excessive negative caster will cause a wobble (alignment issue). Steering joints (inner and outer tie rods will not cause a wobble)
Why does my tire wobble at high speed?
Your tire may wobble at high speeds due to issues such as wheel misalignment, unbalanced tires, or worn-out suspension components. These problems can cause uneven tire wear and affect the stability of your vehicle, leading to the wobbling sensation. It is important to have your tires and suspension system inspected by a professional to address the issue and ensure safe driving.
Why do front tires wobble?
You have a damaged tire. Try rotating the front tires with the rear tires to see if the wobble switches to the back.
Will bad tires make car shake at certain speeds?
Bad tires and bad alignment can cause the car to shake at certain speeds.
Would needing the tires rotated cause your car to shake at high speeds?
No,but tires out of balance will cause this. Have them balanced and rotated.
What causes a car to shake at higher speeds?
== == As the car speeds up the unbalanced wheels start to wobble. The force of the wobble is transferred to the cars body through the steering mechanism. You would feel the shaking first in the steering wheel. It becomes more pronounced as you pick up speed. == == * Front end need's religning, bad tires or tie-rods. * Tires are low in air.
Was does scuffing tires mean?
That happens when you drive too close to the kerb and rub the sidewalls. This can damage the sidewalls enough to give you vibration or wobble at high speeds.
Steering wheel shaking at high speeds?
Could be a minor out of balance condition with one of the tires, or a minor alignment issue that is unnoticeable at lower speeds. Also the tires may not be rated for the speeds you are attempting and are distorting. Another possibility is a harmonic imbalance, the tread of the tires may create a noise that causes a wobble in the steering, the sound is always there but raises to a harmful pitch at a certain speed.
Will unbalanced tires wobble?
Definitely
What wod cause your car to wobble really bad around 50 miles?
Could be your tires need balancing, or you need an alignment. The faster you go, the more it's going to wobble.
Why does the steering wheel vibrate and shake when going at higher speeds?
It could be one of the following: 1. Tires are out of balance, 2. Perhaps one or both tires may wobble. 3. Brake rotors may have warped.
Your 2003 Honda van that has wobble in the steering wheel at intermediate speeds Problem started on install of new tires Had tires rebalanced and rotated mechanic thinks bent rim could it be the tires?
it could be the tires. especially if it has been curb checked. a bent rim isn't unreasonable either
