Alright guys, heres the deal. Got some sti springs put on the 2.5i. They handle better then the ones i had and stopped some of the issues i had. I got them installed then a four wheel align and balance. Well now im starting to feel a little dancing coming from the steering wheel... expecialy at high speed (90-100). I think it could be a bent rim but im not sure because i myself never curb tagged or anything (maybe the ex did) but i am just trying to figure out the steps i can use to find out what did it. Any help anyone?

Bad wheel balance?? take it back... have them do it again

rotate the front and rear wheels.... one side at a time.

I guarantee its a front wheel... rotate them each to the back 1 by 1 to find out which one it is.

^^^^yeah when you pull the struts you have to take out the factory camber bolt... but yeah the wheel shake is more than likely a out of balnce wheel.
