if they are not brand new you cant be sure unless they are tested in a machining shop.. but also you may have balance issues.. so a full geometry check will help imo..

As Cem says a full geo set up would be your best option Wheels in motion are the people you need to see. You don't say what part of the country your from but they have franchises all over the UK.

Worth every penny.  :y :y

What make of discs have you fitted?

My personal experience has been that fitting anything other than genuine Vauxhall is a bit of a lottery. One pattern set I fitted juddered from new >:(

Cant see how full geo set up will help with brake judder guys.

They might be able to do a better job of wheel balancing with their 5stud balancer system though. :-\

Could do if it's bad enough but the whole car will be juddering too. Sounds like front to me.

Agree but he has also got issues at 55mph which could possibly be wheel balance issues. So after he gets the judder sorted a full geo set up would help would you agree.  :y :y :y

Won't make an ounce of difference to wheel balance or judder on the brakes.

If there's a handling issue though, then yes it will help. Although there's no mention of that in this thread.

Wheel balance is not included in full geo set up. That's a seperate process.
