Yesterday I fitted my brand new alloys they look fantabulous I shall post some pics wen i have time

Only problem is...

I now sound like a train Ive checked the wheels there bolted on tighter than scotsman (no offence 2 the scots on here ) There running round fine and dont rub or anything. The wheels are 18" 225/40R8 there fitted on 20mm spacers

But wen goin slow there is a knocking sound its disappears wen accelerating but as soon as i let of the gas abit there it is again! Im assuming this could be something to do with the suspension knocking any ideas ppl? also my tyres outside sound like a dog panting as they go round is this just tyre pressure not right??

I jus had a look at the tyres an on each tyre there is >>>ROTATION>>> and being the plum I am i have of course fitted ALL the wheels rotating the other way do you thing this could be anything to do with it? I wouldnt expect it to but its driving me mad!

Get the rotation right you Doughnut!!! that won't be helping one bit.

I've had noises on 205 x 40/17's before but it was down to cheapo tyres. You really need good tyres which are designed to keep 'harmonic' or sympathetic noises down to a minimum. Some of these wheel & trye packages use NanKang and other makes of tyres, which are not so good I'm afraid.

DON'T WORRY no problems now all sorted switched the wheels round gave it abit of love and attention and got my local car techy to av a fiddle its sweet as a nut now fnx guys

Just gotta get the tracking done 2mo and look at getting it lowered propa pimp wagon

SUPA!!!!
