    Question Vibration after 140+ Kmh

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hi everyone,
    So I got a weird thing happens but I don't know what causing it.
    When I reach 140kmh the car starts to make a little vibration
    And I feel it more when my foot is on the throttle and it's the same if I brake from 160 to 140.
    But this vibration is gone on 160+
    Any idea?

    Suggest starting with a tire balance and checking the tires and wheels for excess run out.

    Many shops use balancing equipment that can measure road force variation within the tire/rim package, recommend you check out one of those shops.

    Must be nice to be doing speeds that high all the time (roughly 85-100 mph). At high speed, air pressure is vital. You may want to consider using Nitrogen instead of compressed air for more stability in pressure regardless of temperature. Also make sure the tires are properly speed rated.
