Ready to race!
Hey all,
Early this spring I put on a StopTech ST40 big brake kit onto my GTI and was so ecstatic about it. However, ever since I put it on, there has been a vibration that comes in at 60-70 mph that just won't go away and would like to ask the community if there is anything else I can look into as I am at a loss of what it could be short of the brakes themselves. The vibration is near steady and can feel it throughout the car.
I have bought and installed hubcentric spacers (needed to clear the calipers), ensured I have a clean hub and wheel surface, had the wheels and tires balanced on a RoadForce machine, got an alignment, replaced two tires that failed the test (one had a big nail in it near the sidewall anyhow) and the vibration is still present.
Is there anything else I could look into that could fix this problem? It really is killing all the enjoyment I normally get from driving the GTI.
