Tire size

[horn8d]

I have a 93 Rodeo and just picked up from a junk yard a set of factory Isuzu alloy wheels with Michelin tires. I'm getting a slight vibration and wondering if this is caused from the new tires. They are 245/R16 and i had a R15 size tire. I've balanced the tires and replaced the lug nuts.

Are the tires "new", or did you find them at the junk yard as well as the rims?

Not quite sure if you're saying they're NEW, or just new to you.

However, if the Michelin's were in the junk yard and having been sitting, they're probably no good anymore. Tires can dry rot, rot from the inside out, and or get out of round with time, and no movement.

Don't think it has anything to do with your changing tire size, just possibly need NEW tires in general.

Make sure the rim's themselves aren't damaged
