Hey I have a 2003 track 350 and was wondering if maybe someone could help. Well I purchased a set of performance 18" rims and put them on. Well all of a sudden my car starts vibrating and if feels like its coming from my front tires. I'm running 245/40/18s when stock is 225/45/18. It's only vibrates when my steering wheel is straight or to the right. But if I make it the slightest bit to the left it stops... Help please!!!

 

Are your new performance reems hubcentric to the Z?

 

I put on my old rims and it did the same thing... So it's not the rims. Something with the car

 

Checked alignment and all the bushings?

 

when this happened to me it was my tread separating from the tires, but since you put different wheels with hopefully different tires on I am guessing that is not the problem

 

Yeah complete diferent rims... brought it to les schwab and the guy said nothing looks outta ordinary.. havent checked bushings but I know my alignment is alittle off. That wouldnt make it vibrate going a certain dirrection tho would it?

 

Turns out my left front wheel bearing is going out and maybe my hub is bad...

 

If you buy new wheels, and the problem begins that day, then the wheels are the culprit. The wheels are OK its the balancing that is at fault.

 

Hub and bearing are not seperate up front, also very easy to swap.

 

Any recommendations for the hub. Also I figured I might as well replace the rotors with drilled and slotted..

 

OEM, and blank rotors are best

 

I agree. I went stop-tech slotted rotors on mine. Not as good as the OE.

 

I wouldn't get OEM, I would go centric blanks

 

This was my initial thought. Luckily OP found the issue.

 

Thanks guys that helps, keep posting if you have more to say regaurding rotors. Or anything I guess lol

 

Would there be much difference between aftermarket blanks, and the oe replacement? I had assumed it would be minimal.

 

OEM rotors are make from silly puddy and cost a bit more.
