    Not sure if it helps but mine did the same thing when I fitted my Bighorns/Dynamic Rims, went to all manner of steering/wheel places and no one could figure it out - all sorts of theroiries including a bent axle tube.

    In the end the fix was simply the panhard rod bolt on the chassis was loose and the bush had flogged out.

    I did post quite a lengthy reply the other day,that is now lost in the ether.But it is a known problem with fitting Dynamic rims to Land Rovers.The other problem that people can have,is the wheel nuts coming loose,refer to my earlier post to alleviate any problems.

    Wow Very generous. I appreciate the offer but i am in Mildura. Just a tad too far.

    Not sure what i will do yet. Probably check a few more things and if i cant find any thing then just put the alloys back on and loose some turning circle...

    Hmmm Will check this as i need to pit a new panhard rod, I seem to have bent the old one. Seperate incident to the wheel wobble though.

    Thanks

    Well I just got the old alloy rims put back on and the car has not drivern this good since i took them off. I will just have to adjust the steering bump stops to stop them rubbing. Oh well better than the annoying wobble.

    Same as I did with mine, it just didn't work. I still cant work out how this tyre combo works on the wife's TD5 90 but not the Puma110. It drives like a sports car (almost) same wheels, same tyres, no wobble. Very odd.

    Obviously if the same wheels and tyres are OK on another vehicle,that tells you that the problem is not with the wheels and tyres as such,but in the fitting.A rotational mass problem.
    Whenever I take my Dynamic rims off the vehicle now,I always make sure that I put the rims on exactly the same way they came off,by marking the tops of the studs that correspond to the valve.And then I use the method I described earlier.That is also why,when I had the problem with my wheels,when I took them off after having the problem,I marked where they came off and rotated the wheels when I refitted them.This was all part of a large post I made that was swallowed up by the ether
