Shakes or Wobbles problem
1992 Acura Integra 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

My car vibrates under acceleration and also on deceleration. The wheels are balanced, I know I need an aligiment because it pulls to the right, but before I do that I would like to fix any other problems that are causing this viberation. Please give me some ideas.

You may have a bent rim or a tire that has had a belt internally shift. These wheels are still dynamically balance out and appear fine, but they will still cause vibration issues on the vehicle.

You should have a technician inspect your tires and rims and possibly get them to what is called a roadforce balance. This is a specialty machine that can check your tire condition to see if it is your problem.

Also, you can rotate your wheels to see if the problem goes away. If it doesn't start looking at suspension components such as warped hubs, spindles, possibly badly worn cv joints, things of that nature.
