Weird sounds after wheel change

[Chrispittman]

All I did was go from 18" motegi wheels to OEM gsx wheels... now my breaks squeek, shit rattles, sounds like metal grinding together, sounds like gravel rolling around in my hatch. wtf..?

are the wheels balanced

yeah they were on a 95 gs and worked fine. I did notice there's like a lip on my hub that collides with a lip on the wheel and so it doesn't seat all the way to the hub but that wouldn't cause all this crap would it..? and is a 95 gs and a 97 gs hub THAT different?

Did you use the correct lug nuts. I don't know what kind of lugs the motegis use but the stock wheels use a lug that has has a straight shaft instead of tapered like most lugs.

And yes if they are not sitting correctly against the hub that will cause some issues.

 

[Chrispittman]

that's a good point, mine are tapered. thanks!

Yep. No problem
