I went on vacation for a couple of months, and left my Outback sitting
inside my garage during that time. Got back and there is a severe vibration
in the steering above 90kph (55mph). Took it to the dealership to have them
rebalance the tires, and they came back and said that it can't be
rebalanced, everytime they add weight to it in the balancing machine it asks
for more weight to be added. They suggested that the tires are "out of
round". Now these are expensive tires (Nokians) and I'd rather not have to
completely replace them. I was wondering if there was an accepted way of
getting tires back into round. I was thinking that maybe I would overinflate
them to say about 45psi or something and leave them that way for a couple of
weeks of normal usage. Would this work?
