k..heres my problem...before i had neuspeed race springs on my integra....i had no problems with it...until i installed eibach pro kits...i know i should get an alignment, but changing the springs shouldnt cause my stearing column to shake on the freeway and braking...i followed the instruction in the owners manuel...what could be causing this...thanks

 

bump


same here but mine is stock suspension

 

well, what tha problem most likely is, is u need new rotors or jus need tha old ones resurfaced. just do a brake inspections and look into the rotors because im almost positive thats the problem.

 

check your wheels, tires, and brake pads, and rotors.

 

Check to make sure your tires are properly inflated, also make sure to properly torque the lug nuts. If that doesn't work, maybe check into getting your rotors resurfaced.

Even with changing only springs, you should still get an allignment. Different spring rates and heights can cause you to go out of spec.

 

What all these guys said. Mine did the same thing, turning out I had warped rotors. Just take your car to your local shop and they'll fix it for you.

Could be rotors, alignment, I woudn't think your springs would cause this.

 

if you also just lowered or changed the suspension, get an alignment. mine did that on all my cars until i got an alignment.

 

are your tires properly balanced?

 

That happened to me... I just had to get my tires balanced then it was fine.... but does anyone know the torque spec for lugnuts?

 

Could be any of these problems: warped rotors, wheel balancing required, rack & pinion worn out, alignment needed.

 

Did you rotate them tires? BTW, ******* kick *** Avatar you got there...

koo...thank everyone

 

I had that exact problem before, all it took was a balancing and an alignment and the problem was gone.

Haha....could you be any LESS specific?

First things first, get an alignment/wheel balancing. A vibrating steering wheel under braking usually indicates warped rotors, but if you just put the springs in, I would first suspect something related to that.

 

rotation
balance
align

 

mine did that as well could be loose wheel or lugnuts are uneven but my car was doing that cause one of my pistons was stuck on my caliper it was not calapsing properly...

 

I agree it could be the rotors
