Get a road force balancing done, no tire should tremble at that speed.

You wouldn't happen to know the exact color would you and where you got it from? I absolutely love the color contrast with DG

I have to say that the yellow lugs are too bright. Maybe a much more metallic look would work? Could be the camera, like you said. If you like it, rock em

Love the calipers. Not a fan of the lugs. Maybe it's just cuz they're a combo deal and I don't like them together. Individually, they're both solid. Just don't like them next to each other.

Sounds like they're really bad out of balance, or possibly even out of round, although I'd think that would be noticeable at all speeds and not just in such a small window of speed. Could be suspension related too.

I'd start by rotating front to rear and rear to front (square set up right?) and see what the result is. If it's still doing it, take it the place you bought and have 'em rebalance/roadforce balance. Also do a google search, iirc i've been reading lots of similar stories about that tire.

I think they both look awesome!

What did you use to paint your calipers? Also did you remove them or leave them on the car?

Thanks !
