    I have an 09 dbl cab. I put on a set of Hankooks 265/75/16's Sometimes at high speeds 60-70 the truck feels like it almost gets wobbely.. Its kinda hard to explain. The truck will bounce up and down more. Its not a consistant smooth roll. Like I said some times it happens and sometimes it does not. Is this due to a balancing issue?

    Thanks

    Sounds like a resonance issue. When the tires get up to a certain rpm they will resonate until they reach a higher rpm.

    Yep,, thats it.. do you think it is tire specific related? Should I take it back and get a different tire?

    Yes it is! But discount is usually very good at working with you to fix the problem.

    You might want to get your tires re-balanced, just to be sure. I have a set of cooper At3's in 265/70r16 and I get a little steering wheel wobble/shake at about 60-65ish. Gonna rotate them and see if it helps at all. Just my $0.02
