This is most commonly caused by wheel balancing. The smaller the tire, the more difficult it is to balance (for places used to larger tires).

You can test this out by putting the rear wheels/tires on the front and vice-versa. If the shaking stops, you will know it is the tire.

I will guess that you have not set the wheel alignment. Whenever you remove/replace tie-rod ends, the toe-in needs to be set. See Alignment.

Hi Guys

i installed a new set of tie rod ends to my b310 ,and i feel it very easy to turn steering to the left(it is very light like power steering), but it is little harder to turn right than left what would be the issue do i need to do a wheel alignment ?

thanks
regards
