the same thing happened to mine it was beacuse the prick who had the car before me hadn't put spriggot rings on the alloys plus the tracking was out. After i got the tracking sorted and got some spriggot rings put on it was fine

i got 16" vauxhall alloys so no spiggot rings or spacers, only started doing it recently though.
so it think ill put the back wheels on the front, chnge the bushes,and get tracking done, that should help.

mine also does this but have had balance checked and it's not that, they said it was something to do with the wrong type of wheels for the car, but apparently does not harm
