No. Humming & extra noise are about the only things you'll notice, and that's marginal.Oly 22 wrote: Would a tread, this aggressive, cause such a noticeable vibration?
I'm guessing you have a bum tire. Everything else was fine prior to this, so considering the only change is new tires, I'd blame the tire(s).Defective tire? Thoughts?
When I was in high school I worked as a tire boy in a couple tire shops. I've see this before where the tire didn't sit right on the rim. So a few time all we did was let the air out and spin the tire on the wheel 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 turn and filled it back up and rebalanced it. Sometimes it worked, other times it didn't. Worth a shot.NVSteve wrote:No. Humming & extra noise are about the only things you'll notice, and that's marginal.Oly 22 wrote: Would a tread, this aggressive, cause such a noticeable vibration?

i've warped ALOT of rotors in my time (not in the pathy though), and there was one time that you could just barely feel a vibration in the steering wheel because they were -so- warped. i mean it was a violent shake when you did apply the brakes, so there so no doubt it was the rotors themselves.Oly 22 wrote:Update. I went back to the shop and I am told that I have warped front rotors but they are not bad enough to change out, at this time. Not surprised based on how many times I drive the mountain passes and the Coquihalla Highway, even when I gear down. I did not have a vibration, in the steering wheel, before the new tires. Question, would warped front rotors cause vibration, in the steering wheel, when driving a straight line at speeds over 40MPH, without using the brakes?
