I replaced my phone dials with a set of 15" x7/8 fuchs last weekend (kept
the same tires) and now above 40mph I get a ton of tire/road noise, the
drone is so bad I have to turn the radio way up so it doesn't drive me nuts.
Also, at 70+ mph I get a lot of vibration and shaking in the steering wheel.
Both of these problems didn't exist before I changed rims. I'm hoping that
the tires are just improperly balanced or something so I don't have to live
with this. Any ideas? Car is a 1986 944 n/a

usually with Fuchs, front and rear wheels are different - first check, are
the skinnier wheels on the front. Next check, are the wheels really round?
next check - are the tires directional, and if so are they on teh right side
of the car? next check - vibration is probably balance, if you didn't have
them balanced, and if they didn't balance them right it could still be
balance.
