Rear wheels wobbling

[Cupra_Wob]

Yes another thread lol, My friend who was driving behind me last night said that my rear wheels were wobbling, ive had my mirrors down on them today and they are quite bad, the wheels are tighted up and there near play in the bearing, only other things are that my wheels are buckled (even tho i havent hit anything) or something to do with my 20mm spacers???

make sure there is nothing between the hub and the spacer, then the spacer and the wheel.. have you got hubcentric spacers ?

so you take the wheel off (not hard).

then you look at the spacer and see if it sitting flat against the hub. if it is a hubcentric jobbie then there should be a small spigott on there.

seriously it is not hard to take the wheel off and see for youself what is going on.. if you cant do that, then sell me the car

I had this with my old car. If the spacers you have are the type that bolt onto the hub, then the bolts that bolt the wheel to the spacer might be to long and fowling with the hub, therefore will seem like they are tight but really they're not. All you need to do is jack up the back of the car and wobble the wheel to see if it is really tight or not as wobbling on the ground will make it look as though it is tight.

If it does wobble then you will have to chop a bit off the bolts that you use to bolt the wheel on with.
