Question:
Yesterday I got a flat tire. I got the tire replaced and drove on to work on the streets and it felt fine. But then when driving later on on the highway my steeering wheel started to shake when I got over 60 mph and the car seems a little..like.. wobbly. Its okay when below 55mph or driving in the city stop and go - i dont feel it. But at highway speed over 50-55 its very noticeable - the steering wheel shakes and shimmies and the overall feel of the ride is wobbly! Any idea what this is - do i need a balance or alignment? I am figuring maybe the guy did not blance the tire, but i am not too knowledgaeable This did not happen until I got that new tire on the front/right side. Please give me some directions here.

How do you get gum and tar off?
Id say balance, and also make sure that your lug nuts are TIGHT!!1996 TOYOTA COROLLA power stearing?
It sounds like you need to get that tire balanced and a front end alignment.If you had the tire fixed instead of replaced, it could be that the patch/plug is throwing it out of balance. If you had the tire replaced, it sounds to me like the new tire is either defective, or needs to be balanced. Check on the rim of the tire to see if it has little counter weights attached.
Is there any way to take apart my headlights?
He did not balance it.Several things could be wrong but we know it is in the wheel, Right! It could be out of balance, the rim could be warped, the wheel could be loose, it might be a used tire that has eneven wear.
