Hey guys,,, read some good thread regarding this problem. Still need some help.

when i got my jzz31 last month, i swap the 18" wheel from my uzz31. now i have 2 problems 1) strong vibration in steering and 2) vibration on the padel.

I have done four wheel alignmnet and balancing last week. no luck! I was convinced from other thread that it is hubring issues. Today bob jane agreed cuz there is no ring in the wheel. but they can not match the size of the ring for the wheels. where can i custom made the ring in appropriate size or is there any other reasonable solution. cheers

Well they are just slack ass who wouldn't change a tyre for a granny without asking her to pop her teeth out for 30 seconds.

Ring around and find someone that CAN get the Hub Rings for you. Start by calling "Stuckies Tyres" in Brunswick

Either that or any engineering shop or a buddy with a lathe could make you up something if you give them the measurements. Probably cheeper to ring around though.

And make sure you get metal hub rings. The plastic ones disintegrate after a couple of years.

I got a set from JAX, don't know if you've got JAX in SA though.

All the plastic ones (or polycarbonate) will eventually crack and disintegrate. It's happened to me twice on different cars, the last time on the Soarer.

went to Beauropairs, they took my wheel detail and have ordered some for me. what about the vibration on acceleration padel? will it be for the wheel? or is there anything else. It is pretty strong at 0-60 km.

Tyres might not be round. It happens. Try swap wheels front/back or better yet, swap the front wheels with someone else for a test.

Had vibration in my Uzz31 5 years ago. Turned out I had a bent stub axle. If your tyre supplier cant supply you with a 20 cent polycarb hub ring, time to change suppliers(was running 17x8F, 17x9R).
But I'm going back to original 15' tyres today for smoother ride. Hehe, I'm getting old.
