Vibration Question

Hey y’all,

I wasn’t sure if I should have posted this in the 2018 section I apologize if I was to.

I have a 2018 Maxima SL, I just purchased new tires from a place here in Indiana called RNR Tire. The first set were Fuzion directionals and they installed them on backwards, leading to a vibration in steering wheel, seat etc.

They said it was due to a bent rim, since then I’ve had 2 rims fixed (not replaced). Still vibration, they put the tires on their road force balance machine and said the tires were bad.

They installed a new set of Fuzion sports and still had vibration. In Indiana we tend to get snow a lot didn’t want the sports on there and had them switched out to Thunderer Mach V’s (I’d never heard of them but they ride nice).

They are telling me the rims are still bent and have moved them to the back. I’m now feeling it in my seat and towards the backseat. They let me go back and showed me they were balanced 0.00 on all fours and told me to look closely and I can see the tire jumping. Me personally I couldn’t.

My rim guy swears it’s not the rims that he’s spun them to what they are supposed to be. I’ve had him check them twice and am waiting for a third time. Tired of throwing money!!

I hope this all makes sense as it’s extremely frustrating to me because after 3 sets of tires, 2 rims fixed and still a vibration. I don’t even know where to go from here.

thanks in advance!
