Hello,

I own a 2010 Hyundai Sante Fe GE 2.5 L all wheel drive.

I've removed my summer rims & have put on the winter tires that are mounted on the factory rims. After mounting them & torquing the wheels to manufacturer spec I noticed that there is a tiny gap between the rim & middle of the brake rotor. Is this factory or normal ?

Second issue is that after mounting the winter rims there is a lot of wobble causing the steering wheel to shake back & forth at approximately 80 KM/Hr. When the aftermarket summer rims were on the vehicle it drove smooth with no issues. Anybody have any ideas that would cause this to happen ?

Guys,

Figured it out, I forgot to take off the wheel spacers for the summer rims smh. All is well now & got the wheels balanced just in case for $20.

Living in Houston, I guess I will never encounter this problem ! I hope your winter is tolerable up there in Canada.
