Steering wheel vibration

After changing the tyres with new ones, i receive a vibration to the steering wheel. It starts at 100km/h (60m/h) it peaks at arround 120km/h (75m/h) and i think it stops at 140 km/h. I went back to the tyre shop and they balance the new tyres but ask me to change one rear wheel with the spare because the alloy seems to be bended. Now the vibration is less noticable but still there. Any other suggestion or thoughts?

Thank you in advance.


P.S Don't fit Michelin Latitude Tour HP to a Free2 TD4. Those tyres are so quiet that a milion ither sounds are noticable now Laughing Freelander 2 TD4 HSE 2.2 (2007) Auto

If the vibration wasnt there before they fitted the new tyres then they havent been balanced properly, what balancing machine do they use?

It sometimes can even be the tyres, some of the cheap tyres can be terrible, but as the previous reply I also think it is most probably the balancing.

good luck
