I purchased a 2000 clk 320 about 3 weeks ago and seem to have problems with what seems like wheel balancing? The car has been lowered with blue H & R springs. The wheels are Brabus 19" monoblock iv 2 piece. I purchased 2 new Toyo Proxie T1-s 265-30-19.
I did this because I thought there was a problem with the Yokohama a008 tires that maybe had 5K miles left were causing the problem of the wheels not being balanced. I took it to discount tire and explained that I thought the car needed a four wheel balance. He proceeded to balance all four tires and said it should solve the problem. No luck. I took it on the road and got the shake-vibration after 45-55 mph. It seems to come and go at times. There will be periods of driving where everthing seems ok....then the shake starts again? When I purchased the new tires in the rear, it seemed to help a little but the shake still was present from time to time. I am waitng for the front tries to come in from being ordered but am really confused at what is going on. I know that the wheels seem to be good. Is there somthing else I should be looking at? PLEASE HELP. I can't enjoy this car with the annoying shake!
