In this paper a vehicle model including the steering, the tire and the suspension systems is presented. Assuming one out-of-balance wheel, the response of the system is obtained and the vibration characteristics of the steering system are analyzed. Based on the analysis conducted, two of the steering system parameters are selected and optimized. This is achieved by performing a sensitivity analysis with respect to various system parameters.
