New wheels and tires. Very noticeable wobbling at most speeds.

    I got a new set of method wheels and falcon wild peak all-terrain’s and they originally came balance but I first noticed wobbling and got them re-balanced. Is it possible that Pep Boys did it wrong and it needs to be re-balanced again? I have already gotten an alignment as well since I put them on. I can see my passenger seat shaking pretty bad and feels like I’m driving on gravel.

    Your truck is completely broken. It’s all over for OP. RIP.

    It’s hard to say exactly; however, I think your intuition is right. It’s probably that your wheels are unbalanced. Don’t feel insulted by the question but what is the reputation for those tires? All Terrain tires aren’t always comfortable, especially if you are transitioning from street tires. If it were me, I would go back to Pep Boys and ask them to have a look. However, if they’re responsible for this, and you have already been twice, then it might behoove you to go somewhere else instead.

    As shitty as it sounds, pay another shop to balance them. Or gp back to the original place and let them know. Road force balancing is also a good way to go. My personal experience with my local discount tire has been great. They do a good job.
