Konig Heliums for 1990 Miata 15 inch

Post by Harry Jones »

Recently installed 15 inch Konig rims on 1990 Miata. I have BF Goodrich's G-Force sport 205/50/r15 on the rims. The car has "the shakes" at 60-70 mph. My mechanic has rebalanced and aligned...which helped... the problem is intermittent now. Mechanic is getting 2 new tires as he believes tow of the new tires were not true. Would these tire be too heavy for the Miata...or any other suggestions appriciated.

Could be the tires, I like to see a nice light 195/50/15 on those early Miatas......

But also likely needs a better balance job than your mechanic's machine can do. Find a local place that has the latest Hunter machine and do a true road force balance.
