Tried searching but didn’t come up with much of anything aside from people selling their tires. Anyone have vibration issues on the highway with their new hc? I have the perelli all season option and i feel like those tires get flat spots extremely easily when not driven every day.

My 2020 wb scat pack did the same thing. Just not as bad. Not sure why they would be that bad. Anyone else experience this?

Yep, many of us. The shops balancing the tires for our HCs don't know they MUST turn off Smart Balance Mode or Smart Weight Mode OFF!

Suggest doing a Search on my name with keyword "balance" or "wheel balance" on what to do, the procedure and steps. What I posted worked for me and many other here.

Let us know...

Best!

The get flat spots very easily and quickly.

cold spots from the garage floor during winter, can lead to the rubber being harder in the contact area, than the rest of the tire, until the tires warm up. If the tire/vibrations smooths out after the tires warm & pressure stabilizes, this is most likely all it is.
If its constant, regardless of tire temp, there is a balance, out of round or other issue.

I just used carpet squares as i have done in the past for may other cars. Seems to work fine so far to keep them from flattening out. Hope this helps others.

I purchased from Race Ramps the product called flat stoppers. Drive the car on to them and it keeps the tire from getting flat spots. Not cheap but they work. I have them for my HCWBRE and my Porsche 911. I really like them. I use them during winter storage months.

Foam insulation from HD, 1/2 or 1" tk.

Ive gotten flat spots on my last three Challengers. They go away after about 1/4 mile. Im used to it now.

I'd want more info before saying anything about flat spots; pressure, FR/RR, speeds, etc. If the car sits for 3 months in the winter, with summer-only tires, that's another thing. I think that's one of those myths that's been around forever that went away with bias-ply tires. I don't see how that will do anything either since you still have 1000+# on a 6" square area.

On cold concrete (below 40) I’ll have pretty bad flat spots in a couple days, but like SP said it smooth’s out after a couple miles. I just park on foam squares year ‘round, seem to do the trick.
