    Hey all:

    Finally joined the forum. It was 18 months ago that i was looking to build my dream truck scouring through this forum looking at lifted tacomas....and now i own it.

    I have a white 2012 4x4 sport long bed crew cab with a BDS 6" lift and 35" Nittos. Love the truck and use it for the construction company I own towing an enclosed 12' trailer everyday loaded up pretty close to capacity.

    I just put the second set of Nitto's on there and am closing in on 70K miles quick. All the sudden my wheel is starting to shake at highway speeds and the brakes make that rumble noise just before completely stopping. Just wondering if this is normal and can I fix it or make the ride better?

    The first set of tires lasted about 35K miles and didn't do this. The truck didn't do it until I had the second set of tires on for maybe 3k miles. Thoughts??

    Thx

    Jordan

    attached a few pics of a light mudding i did after i finally found one too many scratches after a car wash and gave up on it being a pristine new truck. this was the only time i really ran it off road and it wasn't much. eventually we will se what it can do. with no locker i might add. thx Jordan

    It sounds like you threw some weights off your tire having fun. So you might need to have your wheels rebalanced. The larger a tire gets the harder it is to balance.
