ford transit diesel 52 reg front wheel drive?when driving at approx 55 miles per hour i am getting a vibration, it feels as if one of the wheels is buckled. i have had the wheels balanced and checked twice, this has made no difference. i had 2 new tyres fitted a couple of months ago, both on the front, the near side tyre is badly worn in the middle but the off side tyre is fine, i am guessing this is a tracking problem, but would this also be causing the wobble.the two shockers on the back are pretty worn aswell. please help as its driving me insane.

starting at the front jack up each corner in turn,give the wheels a spin and check for kinks,twists and warped tyres and wheels,you say the n/s is worn in the middle so check your pressures are correct,while the motor is jacked up check for play in steering joints and lower arm bushes and balljoints,broken springs,leaking struts and worn or noisy wheel bearings.At the back check wheel bearings,loose `u` bolts and again wheels and tyres and pressures,remove lower shocker bolts and check the shocks are ok with good resistance,any leaks replace them,suggest you get your wheel alignment done and if no better try changing wheels round,have seen poor quality tyres giving problems needing tons of balance weights to get them to roughly balance so good luck.
