Minor Vibration when braking (1 Viewer)

[jayfrem]

Hi there

My FJ has BF Goodrich AT KO 265 75 16.
All still stock.

Have around 40 k km on these tyres.

When braking at speeds about km/hr
I feel a small/minor vibe in the steering wheel. Normal ?

Tyre shops here in Saudi do not want to balance these tyres.

Could it brake disks needing resurfaced ?

Sounds like the rotors in the front need resurfacing.
I just had mine done for the first time back in early July as I was getting some vibes/pulsating when braking.

Have you rotated your tires over the 40k miles? How does the tire tread pattern look, even wear or is there one side wearing more than the other?

I have rotated few times already.
I ll have to take some measurements on thread and feed you back.

If you've had brake pads replaced recently, they may not have re-installed the calipers to the proper torque specs. Nobody balances tires Saudi?
