There are companies that can rebuild driveshafts including balancing them.

The steering wheel on my bravo is vibrating and its most obvious at around 120 to 140km/h and its even worse with my summer tyres(Nexen nfera SU4). Feels like its coming from the front left side but not sure but changing to winter tyers(Conti TS850) last year the car felt like new at high speeds beacuse the problem almost dissapeared but is still present and feels like its getting worse with time.

Thinking about changing tie rods when i put summer tyers back on and do wheel alignment maybe beacuse i didnt change nothing on suspension since i have the car(60kkm). Did anyone else expirienced the same problem? What do you guys think? Any advice?

Thank you all for your answers.

Have a nice day. eace:

Tim,

The vibration almost disappearing when you changed to different tyres suggests that the other tyres/whels were out of balance. I suggest you find someone who is better at wheel balancing.

Wheel alignment has no effect on wheel balance. I don't think tie rods have any effect on wheel balance either. I'd only change parts that are worn or damaged, not 'just in case' they might be at fault.
