So I just had alignment done last week, the guy got the toes straightend. And I also told him to check if everything was fine in the car and he said everything was fine. so when I hit 60mph my car starts to shake( but not really bad) and I can fell my tires wobble. But my camber is offset a little cause Iam low and I have some 18s. So you guys think its the camber doing this or what?? Do I have to straightend the camber? I worry about it cause I had a wheel that came out of my car going 80mph not too long ago.

This happened because my studs broke, don't know how they broke.

re check everything again. camber kit will NOT make your car wobble. check if the wheels are balanced. bring it to another shop to have it inspected again. 2nd opinion.

did you torque down the lug nuts?? if studs broke.

I did, but I think the lug nuts fitted loose. And that was a terrible way of finding out they didn't Fit tight

it doesn't wobble like really bad, but if the wheels are not straight cause of the camber you think it would ride like this? Because I've seen a lot of people throwing the camber off set to make their rims fit in their cars and wonder if their cars ride like this too.. the tires and rims are brand new.. and I've been thinkin about taking it to a different shop, but its hard to find a shop that has low ramps for low cars over here.

it has nothing to do with your alignment or camber, your car is low so your camber is always going to be slightly off its normal. You need to get your wheels balanced thats whats making your car shake after 60mph

I got new rims with new tires, so they mounted and balanced them and after a month I dropped the car alittle more and went for an alignment. But maybe I have to get them balanced again.

Yeah I was going 80mph in the interstate, I was lucky I didn't get hurt or lucky a truck trailer didn't smashed me. Thats why I bought new rims with new tires if you noticed I had some black rims before.
