Next up is to call costco to get my ramz and tars rebalanced. Getting a decent amount of vibration at 80+.

80+ is illegal.

Costco did a shit job on my tires too, these guys are fucking shit out here. I don't even know how to do as it takes them 1/2 a day to do this shit.

They did an okay job when they mounted my PSS. I guess it depends on who you get. One thing that annoys me is they leave the wheel weight residue on the wheel and don't take it off.

My appointment isn't until next saturday and that was first available. They do a killing there.

It's not another bent wheel is it? sorry man vibrations at high speed are annoying.

I certainly hope it isn't. I haven't hit anything since I put the enkeis on 2 weeks ago.

Everytime I look at them up close I though. Finish is still awful.

Solution is never clean them nobody will ever know.

Still get vibrations at 80mph.

Also hearing those weird front suspension noises at low speed more frequently due to the colder weather.

Is this on stock wheels?

Either your roads are worse than mine or you hit more stuff at high speed than I do. Man that’s a bummer.

Vortex tells me there's a TSB out for 2017's but my SA said he can't do the TSB because I cleared the codes. Apparently the ECU doesn't store them which I thought it did. They do all that shit to find out if a car is t00ned or not to flag it TD1 but they don't store fault codes?

It stores the codes if you don’t clear em did the cAr run weird or just throw the codes for no reason ?

No idea. My SA basically said the ECU was throwing erroneous error codes. Maybe I need to send him on better vacations.
