Hey All, Probably Alignment Issue!!

Had to Hit a Curve to prevent my Baby from being Creamed! It's been about two months ago! Did not feel anything at all just right-after, like nothing happened!

In the past 3 or 4 weeks I can feel some Steering vibration (Right wheel, mostly). It occurrs mostly when I am accelerating verse when I am breaking.

Also, It does not vibrate all the time, Morning a lot!

I have check the Front tires for any excessive whear! I can't see anything different (In or Outside)!

Again, an alignment would probably be one of the remedies, maybe Tire!

I might even now need to replace the pads early! It feels like the Pads are very low. NO Brake Lining sensor warning!

Hmmm!!! Sounds like the thrust arm bushing started leaking after the impact and now totally out of fluid and causing your vibration. But it is hard to diagnose a driveability issue without actually driving the car.

In your case it could be mis-aligned toe of the wheel, wheel balance, bent rim, warped rotor, sticking caliper,etc in addition to the thrust arm issue.

Is the vibration related to speed at all? What wheels are you using? If aftermarket, with ot without spacers?

Yes, it is related to speed! The Harder I ride the Rive the more Intense the Vibrations is!
