prevent my car from it.thanks.

If all four tires are the same size and brand, wheels should not matter.

I already told you on fourtitide. as long as all tires retain the same aspect ratios you'll be fine.

If you can drive through a vibration, does that usually mean it's a simple balancing issue?
