The drive down to Portsmouth was OK but when we got to France, where the roads are smoother and the speed limit 10 mph faster, I noticed that the steering wheel wa shaking a lot. That usually means wheel trouble.
Took the car to a garage in Valence today and they agreed that it must be the fault of the new tyres. They had to take all four wheels off and balance every one using a special machine. It cost 53 euros to get them fixed.
I am pretty angry about this because when you get new tyres fitted, part of the cost includes re-balancing them. It isn't just a matter of the wheel shaking: being out of balance damages the car as well.
