[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1233308, member: 3828"] Nubs don't cause front end wobble. Look closely at the tire where it meets the rim. There is a small concentric rib that is molded into the tire sidewall. It should be equidistant from the edge of the wheel rim all the way around. If you do not use enough lube when seating the bead on the wheel it may not fully seat all the way around and that will cause a wobble. If that is not it, the tire is defective. I've had good luck running the stock plugs on a 1st Gen for 15k miles or so. With a 3rd gen and the Coil Over PLug ignition, you should be able to go 25k miles on a set. At that point you need to pull the plugs when you do a valve check anyway. so that is a great time to slap some new ones in. [/QUOTE]
