New Ronal LS, New Tires, New Wheel Shake

[mccor023]

This is truly a noob question, and I hate that I don't know. But, I finally got my set if LS w/ new Kuhmo's and had a shop mount/ balance then I swapped out my ole bottle caps. I always had a nice smooth ride on the highway before, but now have steering wheel shake at 60 mph+.
My question is did the shop possible balance my tires incorrectly, or maybe need a new alignment because I went from the 195/65/14 to 225/50/15?
Im hoping its that simple, but I was also wondering if my negative camber is too much and I need to take corrective actions on the front.

Any help or tips would be great before I start spending money aimlessly. Thanks.

They did not balance them right if it is only around a select speed like that. If it is at all speeds then there is a tire or wheel concern. But what you are having sounds like i would be going back to that shop and asking for them to re check them.

As for camber, that is all up to you. It may track weird on the road and you may not like that. But that camber would not cause a vibration.

Thanks, I don't mind the track I just don't like the shaking wheel and vibration.

I'm not sure, but are LSs hubcentric?
Do you need hubcentric rings?

to tick all boxes, i would confirm they are the right hub size as above, if they don't sit right on your hub then add some hubcentric rings (tyre shop should have those).

then i'd get them to double check your balancing and finally i'd also get it aligned again for peace of mind. you wouldn't want it to be out with the new setup and end up eating your tyres up prematurely. I.e. its pretty cheap insurance really

I finally got around to having the wheels/ tires balanced by a different shop than the install. Sure enough that was the problem. As I've read elsewhere there are different ways to balance, and the 1st shop did it the crappy way.
