When changing tyres, balancing is always done. Whatever the job is done properly or not, depends on the sifu handling it. The one done on the machine is usually called off wheel balancing.I ended up with Advan Racing 15" and Michelin PS3 195/50/R15.
However, when I got out to the highway I felt vibration when I'm driving about 110km/h which did not happen before changing the rims and tires. This is mostly due to the balancing right?
bro , how much was ur cost for ur tyre and rims??I ended up with Advan Racing 15" and Michelin PS3 195/50/R15.

How will I be able to check if it fits perfectly now? But one friend of mine said that most of the time when upsizing to a larger aftermarket rims, the center cone is very likely needed. But shouldn't the shop suggested/advised on this matter?When changing tyres, balancing is always done. Whatever the job is done properly or not, depends on the sifu handling it.

The one done on the car is on wheel balancing. Firstly I need to ask. Does the new rims fit perfectly with the wheel hub? If not, I suggest you fit the center cone first to fit the rims properly in the center.
If don't consider trade-in value, the whole set would cost about RM1,900.bro , how much did ur tyre and rim cost u??
Yes, did/bought at Kedai Papan aka Hin Leong in Klang.Since you saw them putting the centre cones, I think it's balancing that you need to do next. I don't think the rim shop guy can make a mistake with this. Did you do it in Kedai Papan, Klang?
Depends from shop to shop. That day at Tek Ming, my mechanic was changing rims, they did suggest fitting the center cone. Many other shop I went to did not.How will I be able to check if it fits perfectly now? But one friend of mine said that most of the time when upsizing to a larger aftermarket rims, the center cone is very likely needed. But shouldn't the shop suggested/advised on this matter?
If the cones have been fitted then the balancing maybe not good......Actually I saw them placing something similar to this before putting on my tires:
WTS : Aluminum Center Cones (Hub Hole)
So now got 2 possibilities? One is that the center cone is not the correct size, another is the balancing was not done properly?
195/50R15 PS3 should be RM230 per pc.How much is the tyre only? How do you find the tyres?
First he did the off-wheel where he put the tire to the machine. After doing that, he did the on-wheel where he fit back the tire and then spin the tires by accelerating it until about 120-140km/h to feel the vibration. After several adjustments, then he said done and shouldn't vibrate anymore based on his testings. But when I took it back to the highway and tested it myself, I still felt vibrations but it wasn't as bad compared to yesterday.May I know which method is used to balance your tyre this time?
