G8 Steering wheel Shimmy Any one with a G8 that has a slight shimmy in the steering wheel?
I replaced everything on both sides except hubs
Struts
front control arms
ineer tie rods
outer tie rods
say bar link
I have aftermarket 20" rims with the centering rings
Eibach Pro springs.
it had the shimmy all the time befor I replaced everything now it just does it at 65MPH. but it seems to worsen on different roads.
is it as simple as the roads suck and the steering is so sensitive it feels everything?

Yeah I was thinking hub bearing was next step.
I did have wheels road forced balance... And unfortunately I dont have stock wheels. I purchased car used it came with 20" aftermarket... I prefer the stock look. But I need the GXP wheels the GT dont do the car justice
