Default 2008 Accord Shimmy poll...

I wanted to ask those of you that have a 2008 accord, if your car has a Shimmy issue. Certainly the OEM tires are really pretty bad, but it's also been known that the OEM tire pressure settings are way off.

A simple tire pressure adjustment can alleviate most of the typical shimmy issues if applied correctly, that being a front end pressured bias/stagger (eg 34f and 30r).

excluding an issue where the car's toe is out of spec, post up your vote and a response to how your car responds to the stagger/pressure adjustments suggested above
thanks
Schu

I see vibrations all the time from the '08 Accords (and most other models). But we have 115 degree summers out here, so maybe it's for a different reason.

Customers complain about vibrations more often on fresh rubberized asphalt, too.
