mbenseignant@gmail.com Posted November 24, 2012 Posted November 24, 2012 I was intending to post a video of my car driving up the street, but I don't think .mov format is supported. The passenger side front wheel has a distinct wobble. I'd appreciate any comments on the likely cause. Car is 1924 with wooden spoke wheels.Many thanks, Mike Barnes, Vancouver, Canada. mbenseignant@gmail.com
JFranklin Posted November 24, 2012 Posted November 24, 2012 Loose spokes or a bent rim can cause a wobble If your spare wheel is better it could be swapped with the one on the ground. Sometimes a tire can make it look like a wheel problem so check that it is not the tire.
mbenseignant@gmail.com Posted November 25, 2012 Author Posted November 25, 2012 Thank you, J. Franklin. I should have looked before I posted: the rim is not mounted true on the hub. Should be easy to raise, loosen, remove, then reseat. Thanks all for looking.
