Ok so i put my back ones on the front and now my car and steering wheel starts to shake at about 70 on the highway. I know this is normal but i forgot if i need an alignment or balance to fix this. Thanks for the help tr.

Might have had bent rims in the rear, and when you rotated them in put them it the front.

You cant just throw the rims anywhere the new style balancers measures road force the lower the run out depends on the ride of the car and where the tires should be placed

thats not true. i work at tire kingdom and if the tires arent directional tires then it doesn matter where those tires go. and if he just moved them straight from the rear straight forward and the front straight back then hes fine.. just balance those wheels and ull be fine..
