Default Tire Issue

2000 EX V-6

Just bought 4 new Goodyear Eagles to replace my Michelin's.

Now the care rides rough when I hit about 65/70. A bit of a shake
to it that I can feel in the wheel that's traceable, by all accounts, to the
ground and how the tires are interacting with the pavement.

Any similar issues, and resolution? Tires have 800 miles or so on 'em; think
they're just getting "broken in?"

i work at town fair tire, no such thing really as tires getting worn in, some do have a coating that gets warn off after a few miles, sounds llike ur wheels are off balanced, go to a tire place and ask them to be "Road Forced" balanced

i have micheln, they run smoth all the way up to 130 down to 5

probably off by about 10-20g(orange weight((don't ask lol))) or American .5-1.00 oz that will give a vibration at those speeds

thanks for the input. yeah, it's kinda weird. i know a car will shake a little once tires are worn and on their last leg, but at 65/70 with brand new one's is kinda strange. i'll take it back. thanks
