Constant shaking?
THis started maybe a month ago, maybe not that long. It's a constant shaking as if my right rear wheel is not a perfect circle. (if that helps you understand what I mean by shaking.) I figured that maybe a wheel weight fell off, but they all appear to be on there. It feels like it's getting worse, and it's annoying. Could it be the brakes at all? I just replaced my front pads, and I might be doing the rear shoes tomorrow...any ideas? Any questions? I might not have explained it too well...

Re: Constant shaking?
If you don't find anything broken or loose, try driving the car with your spare in place of the wheel you think is causing the problem. If it goes away, you have your answer.

If the spare doesn't let me know, I'll see about getting them all balanced.

Re: Constant shaking?
Yeah sounds like tire. Hope the spare works out. It would be a nice simple problem solved without paying out the ****! I had that happen 2 days ago.....rear end was shaking....It really felt like the drivers side rear so we pulled the tire off and it was concaved in....right in the middle of the tread....popped another tire from one of our others on and drove smooth.

Re: Constant shaking?
I found out it was the wheel being off balance, I assume, so i will see if I can get it rebalanced...
