I have two questions; I am the original owner of a 2001 monteo ltd. with 65k miles on it.
1.It’s been a month since a noise started somewhere from the steering shaft, as though it is rubbing some rubber. The noise comes whenever I am turing…
2. I have replaced the wheels with 20" rims for the last four years, I have noticed the hub centric ring is not a perfect fit between the hub and the wheel opeining. Therefore I always have a bad vibration on the steering wheel when the speed is 60mph or over. Less than that speed you can hardly notice the vibration.
I will appreciate if some one could help with some advice…

And you are worrying about the rubbing noise from the steering wheel? I would be a lot more worried about the wheels and I would have had them replaced long ago.
As for your question, does it sound like rubbing plastic?
