I was taking out the summer tires and cleaning the rims to get ready to put em on if this weather keeps up. Then I noticed something funky when I was rolling them.. They wobbled like crazy on an even surface.
You figured the tire should roll straight right? I had some alignment issues so I'm guessing the tires took a beating.

How did you store them?

IIRC you should store them on their side - storing them otherwise creates a flatspot - or so I've read.
Yeah, I stored them on their side. Always have.
I'll have to see when I put em on I guess. If I feel some vibrations, might be time for new rubber.
What warm weather?


Sad
Being from the North, this is warm weather Smile
sounds like you have a belt shift going on...is the wobble up and down, or side to side?
