I am running as most know i guess 10X15 wheels with 33 X12.50 KM2's
At speeds below say 60 I have steering wheel wobble, shimmy you know slight shaking back and forth side to side does anyone else have this with there larger tires? And if so what can I do to reduce this ,does anyone make a dampner for the rack and pinion front ends? Or am I going to have to fabericate one up to help reduce this I only see and feek it in the steering wheel

 

try something simple first...

rotate the tires. backs to the front and fronts to the back.

see if it changes. if it was me i would probably take them back and have them re-balance them again.

 

Any news on this squrll?

Was it just an improper wheel balance? When I got my new tires put on, the balance unit was off calibration and I had a shimmy at highway speeds. I brought the truck back to the shop for a rebalance and it corrected it. Sometimes it's just as easy as that.

After hitting up the sand dunes my truck shaked like no other. Balanced them and I was good. Go to discount tire and get the lifetime balancing for $70. Then you can balance and rotate them whenever you need to.

 

switched the tires around and all good now

 

good to hear. probably one of those tires are mis balanced.

 

I had to take mine back to get rebalanced...they said a weight must have fallen off...Same thing happened the next day...So I just went to walmart and they got me set up...If walmart lube techs arent good for anything else, they can balance a tire

 

i got the same problem with my 33s but it always starts after wheeling
most likely a thrown weight
