I am trying to resolve the wheel vibration problem and I have been looking at a few wheels from Jeep. Will any Jeep 15 X 7 wheel match the bolt pattern and offset? Greg 0036 _________________________

Vibration problems on Bricklin wheel are often due to them being balanced improperly. They are lug centric and can't be balanced the the same way that hub centric wheels can. It is amazing how many t

-- In my case, the wheels were out of true, and even having the tires shaved with the wheels on the car did not solve the problem. New aftermarkets wheels did. JLC ___________________________________

It depends, Jeep has used several different bolt patters and offsets over the years some are 5 on 4.5 and they may bolt up, It depends on the center hole though, many are smaller than the bricklin hu

This is interesting. I will have to check to see how they were balanced the last time and see if they have this option. I tried to see if I could find someone that could do the old fashioned spin ba

Yes, that certainly does seem like the best way to go, if you can find someone to do it. Maybe try calling shops that work on custom cars and hot rods? Scott Scott, This is interesting. I will have t

Just called Sam's and they just recently got the lug centric balancing equipment two months ago. So I am going to take the rear wheels there to let them try the lug centric equipment to balance the t

That's great, Greg. Discount Tire is another chain that usually has the equipment for balancing lug centric wheels. It can make a huge difference. My wheels were out of balance for a long time before

http://www.innovativebalancing.com/ Pour this stuff in your tires valve stem and it balances your tire. But then most of our cars suffer from overaged tires that sit for long periods of time and get

Has anyone tried the Dyna Beads on a Bricklin? Picked up my rear tires from Sam's today after being lug centered balance and fine tuned. Problem is I cannot test it out until Saturday to see how it d

Finally got the car out today. Drove down the interstate and the balance is better. It is not a perfect ride, but it is hard to compare a 1974 car to a more updated car and suspension. I am going to
