    stock.
    2016 Tacoma 4X4 4-door, long bed(pic) Steering wheel shakes, like if it needs a wheel alignment. Wheel alignment done at firestone tire shop 3X still problem persists. I have stock tires in the front 265 70-R17, rear 285, 75-R17. One Firestone place said the front right rotor needed to be turned, Took to a different Firestone shop. they said the rear thread pattern and bigger tire needed to be matching the front.??? I read online that there's a "steering Damper" in the front tires that goes out of, alignment???
    __ is anybody out there having this problem with their Taco?? don't wanna spend anymore money than I have to. I'm thinking of taking my Taco to the Toyota dealer maybe they'll know whats up@!!

    They probably won't look at it whith two different size tires on there... (WTF?)
    I would check out the steering TSB?? and try having the the wheels re-balanced.

    And for gods sake get some matching tires :der:

    So the burning question is, are you a troll, or just oblivious?

    If oblivious, you just need a mid '70's Ford. It won't much care what you do to it.
