Right, first proper post in this new style forum.[

I've had problems with vibes through the steering wheel for quite a while now!!
At speeds of say 80ish, you can feel a wobble/vibe in the steering wheel. This is much more pronounced when you acclerate but I think it's still there when coasting with the clutch in (at these speeds).
It seems like sometimes the vibe is worse than others, maybe depending on road surface.
Prettty sure that the car never used to do this.
Any ideas???
I'm wondering if it's the balancing of the wheels as I've heard it's really difficult to balance the BBS RXIIs I have (16"). Now I've swapped front to back and back to front and it's still about the same!!
Everytime I ask to get the wheels balance, the garage always say they are out!!!
What can I do? I've heard about on the car balancing but don't have a clue how/if this works on FWD cars.
