[DMCForum] Re: Road noise

["erikgeerdink" <erikgeerdink@xxxxxxxxx>]

I did not notice the humming before I changed tires.  I believe they 
balanced the tires off the car.  I've heard that balancing needed to 
be done on the car.  Would that cause the problem?  The car goes in 
an absolute perfect straight line when its on a flat surface.  

Erik...not on crack.
