    I had my fair share with vibrations since I got the truck. Initially it was heavy vibration with fast acceleration, 29k back then, dealer changed many things including engine mounts, something in the steering wheel etc until they added the 4 leaves pack which took care of the problem.
    Few months ago I installed the 2016 4runner trail edition rims with tire 17in, they had about 400 miles when installed. As a matter of fact the ride got nicer and smoother specially on the highway since the new tires threads are smoother then the oem off road tires.

    Recently, about a month ago I started feeling a vibration when decelerating to a stop, it is well well noticed in between 35 to 25mph. It feels like the whole truck shudders. Tried it with neutral, I looks like almost gone. The truck has 39K now.

    Everything is stock except for the rims as mentioned above.

    Any ideas or similar experience?

    Thanks

    When you say decelerating, does it happen when apply the brakes only, or not even using the brakes and just coasting? Curious if it might be a warped rotor if it only does it when applying the brakes.
