Hi Guys, I just had a quick question. Before I change my rotors and brakes pads, my R running fine w/ out any Vibration when I was going 80mph, a couple of weeks ago, I had to change new rotors and Brake pads. When I was going 80 mph, my steering wheel started to vibrate a little. Could this be that my rims are off balance?

 

could be...
But are you getting the Vibs when braking or when off the gas?

So you changed your rotors and brake pads and THEN the vibration happened? If so;

Was everything installed correctly and torqued to spec?

Were the pads bed in properly?

Sounds like uneven pad compound deposit and or no or improper pad bed-in if it's during brake usage.

 

I have spoon brakes w/ OEM brake pads w/ auto zone rotors part number 3296. Maybe my torque spec were off, could some one provide me torque spec? Vibration doesn't happen when braking, it just happen when I'm driving, and around 80 mph, it starts to Vibrate a little.

Thanks in Advance!

 

Check your lug nuts and make sure they are all tight too.

 

Then, I'd say your problem is wheel balance. Have you gotten them balanced lately?

 

that is what i was going to do next just to make sure, the thing is, before i change out everything, it was fine, but when I replace everything, it started to vibrate a little, I even rotated my tires just to see the difference, but it was still the same but not quite at bad.
