Two nights ago a couple of buddies and I went mudding about 30 min. away from where i live. Everything went pretty well until we left, and I got on the highway. As I started to accelerate up the ramp my Jeep started vibrating up front violently. I looked out the window and could see my left front tire wobbling. I then realized that it only did this when I got to 25 mph. I'm not sure if I just need to have my tires rebalanced. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! F.Y.I this is my daily driver and I am still in high school.

 

Check to make sure you dont have mud caked inside you wheel. I have seen this happen before and it will create an "unbalanced" wheel and cause a bad vibation. I am not sure how thick the mud was that you were in but if it was pretty sticky this could very well be possible.

 

Yes, the mud was really thick that I was in. I havent really been able to look at it much. I got home at 1 a.m. that night, and then I had a football game last night. I'm gonna go give it a good bath right now.

 

A sprinkler like the one below, is a good way to clean underneath if it isn't lifted. Hook it up and let it run for a few minutes then move it around and let it run a little longer.

 

very common for mud to cause tire wobble

 

Yes it was just mud. Thank you guys for the help!!! Woo what a relief!
BTW it is lifted.

 

Another bad side effect of the mud is blocked airflow through the radiator that can result in overheating. So make sure you spray the radiator good to keep it clean.
