Styling Slight BRake judder after fitting new wheels

[adams92]

Hi i have just fited some new wheels to the car and now i have slight brake judder only slight but its there wtf?!

What wheels are they? Are they meant for the car? Have they been balanced?

Or take it back off and check the brake discs are still nice and secure. Should be no movement in them at all.

If they are aftermarket wheels they may need spigot rings, wobbly bolts to fit properly

Could be the wheels need balancing, does the steering wheel judder at speed? If not could be the discs which are slight warped, or maybe even a dodgy piston in one of the calipers?

Or, the brake disc retaining bolts were loose/missing and some dirt has got between the disc and the hub. This will cause the pedal to pulse.

Take off the wheel and the disc. Clean the disc faces and reassemble. Ideally fit new disc retaining bolts but they are not essential.
