Ahh, had not heard this before about the 351s, thanks.

Follow up on my story...the shop says their wheel "expert" who does the rim straightening found no other wheels bent, but did do a roadforce balance again on all 4 and said 2 of the other wheels needed balancing.
They said they're not sure why the balance machine at the original location didn't get it right. Guess this ain't an exact science...

My theory is that because run-flat tires weigh more, they magnify any balance issues. ?


Anyway, went for a quick spin on the highway and it's definitely better.
Car is weird. Sometimes it does it, last 2 days driving in the highway car felt smooth as hell 🤷🏻*♂️
Mine is like this at times too. Sometimes silky smooth. Other times vibrations. Not sure what it could be. But I have a new set of conti dws06 about to be installed and my guibo is due so I'll be ordering that now
