brought 17's b4 christmas. went off down the ring road car started shaking (felt through steering wheel) at 50mph. told tyres wernt balanced. had tyres balanced and didnt solve problem.
recently noticed both front tyres are worn more on the inside. could it be tracking?

uneven wear could mean the tracking, but it sounds like its someting else due to the shaking wheel

As above spigot rings can cause this as the wheel does not fit flush on the hub!
But could be tracking but unlikely!

the tops arent in so cant be camber. also the car isnt lowered.
do the wheels need to sit dead on the hubs because their is very slight play when you offer up the wheels to the hubs.

Sounds like you need spigot rings tbh, if your saying it wobbles on the hub..
