Steering vibrations are common in Minis, especially on rough Pakistani roads:

Wheel Balancing Issues:
Unbalanced tyres can cause vibrations at certain speeds, usually between 80–120 km/h.

Tyre Defects o r Uneven Wear:
Worn tyres, bulges, o r uneven tread wear from misalignment contribute to shaking.

Suspension and Steering Components:
Worn ball joints, tie rods, o r struts transmit vibrations to the steering wheel.

Road Conditions:
Rough o r uneven roads in Pakistan amplify minor wheel o r suspension imperfections.

Result:
Vibrations can affect handling and comfort, and regular tyre balancing, rotation, and suspension inspections are necessary.
