I've gotten my wheels balanced about 3 times in the last month and my damn steering wheel still keeps vibrating like crazy. Does anybody here know what could cause my steering wheel to vibrate and shake so damn much?? It's getting really annoying and want it fixed asap. If you know what the problem could be and want to help out let me know. I'll pay if it isn't too much.

could be the tires themselves, run your hands along the tread to see if its wavy.

I remember when I first received these tires, there was one tire that was kinda waved inwards. Could that be the issue? If so, why didn't the damn place that installed the tires let me know that the tire isn't good!! Hmm...

As I mentioned earlier, my tires are still practically brand new with only about 1500 miles on each, probably even less. One tire was kinda cupped inwards, or bent, around the edge on both sides (by the hard part, assuming that's by tire belt) when I received the new shipment. A few people mentioned that it is normal when you buy new tires and one or two tires are kinda cupped inwards around the edge. I'm confused if it's not a tire or wheel problem, then wtf could it be? I never had this problem before I put the wheels and tires on. They are stock wheels just powder coated black and the tires are the same size as the stock tires.
