    Got my 16x8 light matte gunmetal Fn Fx Pro wheels on with 285/75/16 tires. They look awesome in every way. I have King OEM suspension with Deaver leafs that add about 2.2 inches in the back and 2.2 inches in front. The rear wheels have no clearance problems, the front I got aligned to +3.0 caster and they don't rub at all in normal driving or full compression, but do just a little when turned hard and fully compressed on the cab mount.

    Finally got my new matte black 16x8s installed. Perfect fit with the 265/75r16 Wildpeaks.

    has anyone ever had problems with these wheels balancing? my wildpeaks absolutely will not balance.. (road force balanced at discount tire) They have bad, wa wa wa wa wa wa sound as well.. But, they show balanced on the machine.. but I have steering wheel shake. Ive had them balanced probably 10 times in the 25000 miles, never stops.. sometimes its pretty good, but never gone. Had them balanced twice in the past 3 weeks... still got shake. And the weights and location of weights changes every time. and the computers will show them balanced right. But it cant be. It had been a while since I had them balanced, but, the last time I did I went through the same thing.. 3 times in a month or so.. it was good enough I delt with it. I just want I know its not the wheels before I get new tires. im fed up. it doesn't matter what tire is put where, or how they are rotated. they all do it.

    well. I changed tires today. went from wildpeaks to wrangler ultraterrains, STILL FREAKIN SHAKING! they tried a different balancing technique,, and an adapter. I had no issues on stock wheels and tires. When I put these wheels on, I also put on wildpeaks. and have had shake ever since. Also had bad wawawawawawa sounds from the tires. Had them balanced about 10 times over 25000 miles. Never got rid of it. Finally got fed up, and changed tires.. and it didn't help. Still have wawawawawa sound, as if they are wobbling. and still have shake in the seats and the stearing wheel.. and I can hear my change rattle in the console. I don't know what to do. Next step is to put my original wheels on. If they do fine.. im blaming the wheels

    When you changed to the FN's and tires did you change anything about the suspension at the same time?

    No. Nothing changed. I had it aligned thinking it might help.. Though it had one side that was off a good bit, it didn't help the shake, only helped with tire wear. and they said everything else seemed nice and tight. And then shortly after that I had to replace a wheel bearing at 80,000 miles. Its all very strange, and very annoying. I can Hear that something isn't right. You can hear the wobble and feel the shake. its been about 25k miles ago I think. But, new wheels and tires is all that was changed at the time, and ive had shake ever since. tried multiple places road force balancing. sometimes it came out decent, but still had shake. Been back several times lately for balances.. never gets better. Finally chalked it up to the falkens.. I had great expectations of a smooth ride.. but still have Still the same exact thing. Took it right back, they recalibrated the machines and tried balancing a different way, and with finger plates to apply torque. Ive moved tires all around trying to find it. Rotated em front to back left to round and back again. Never goes away. Im going to put the new tires on stock wheels and see what happens. If it fixes it, im going to be extremely upset.

    You're using the proper log nuts and not oem right? Just trying to troubleshoot all possible options.

    yeah the ones that came with the wheels. Today I looked around on the tires some... I have movement on the tires while they are spinning, Like they are out of round. like in and out movement. I took the two with the most movement and put them on the back, and the two with the least and put on the front.. Steering shake is much much better.. but, still there, and I can still hear wobble, and there is still shake in the rear. But I cant conclude there is any movement just at the wheels. Im still going to put my stock wheels back on, and see what happens, Then I can also bolt up the newer wheels and check spin and see if they run true.

    So you had a really bad shake for 25,000 miles and didn't change the thing that may have caused it?

    Not sure what you are asking here. I don't know what is causing it. Its not a really bad shake.. just enough to know its not right. I put new tires and wheels on.. Ended up replacing a tire thinking that was it.. because it was out of round. had multiple balances done. no one could see anything wrong with the tires. Ive always felt it was the tires. but I didn't want to just go spend money on new tires. Tried several things. Tried moving stuff around. tried an alignment. more and more balancing. Sometimes it was dang close.. close enough to deal with. now its not. And now also with NEW tires of a different brand its still not right. so I don't know what the problem is.

    Did you try reverting to stock wheels?

    The issues you described previously seemed bad from your initial descriptions, which is more what I'm picturing. I've had issues in the past
