***Tire question, vibrating when cold!!!***
Last night got quite cold, and when I started driving it my car was vibrating.
It's weird, for the lack of a better term, it was more like hoping, not the usual vibrating I know due to balance, or worn rubber...it freaked me out, cus it was not being felt on the steering wheel, just hopping, so I called my brother, and his "genius" idea is that the rubber is old (worn, lost elasticity) and when the car stays for a while (which was like 5 or 6 hours), tires develop these flat spots, and then it vibrates, but once driven for a bit it kind of goes away?????? HUH
So the tires prolly have 30 or so KM on them, but there is a lot of thread, and this happens only when first starting to drive, after like 10 or so KM, it gets better, it doesn't go away but it gets better.....
Does this make any sense at all, does this mean I need new rubber, or it's something else?
Thanks in advance!
