New tyres fitted now something doesnt seem right?. - 21st Jul 2011 7:10pm
Hello Autowirral section. Last Friday I had both my front tyres replaced as the tread depths where barely legal. Since then the road noise has increased noticeably and the ride is not as smooth. Its almost as if I can feel every pebble embedded in the road surface. Is this normal or has some oaf at the garage managed to mess something up?. The car also feels slightly more sluggish but I admit this may just be my imagination and the mpg has dipped slightly which may be down to the lower temperatures this week. Are there any common mistakes that could have been made that may be causing this?.
I have checked the tyre pressures and they are normal. I have also made sure all the wheel nuts are tight. I even jacked the wheels off the floor to see if they wobble but they don't.
Does anyone know what it may be?.
