Steering wheel vibration help

So I recently got new wheels for tacoma and got them installed at a small tire shop by my house. I was using the factory tires on a new set of wheels. They did the traditional balance and I drive it home with no issues. A few days later I take the truck on the highway and notice a bad steering wheel vibration/shake at about 63 mph and over. (had no shake before new wheels) I then went to a tire shop that does road force balancing and I told them the issue. (steering wheel vibration) so they said the front tires are probably out of balance. They proceeded to road force balance the 2 front tired and that fixed the issue 90% I still have a slight vibration at high speeds intermittently. What else should I do to fix this? Did that tire shop not do a good job road force balancing or do I need to get rear tires road force balanced? If it matters the wheels I got were the DX4 Flare 6x5.5 -10 offset. Also no lift kit has been done. Stock ride height with stock tires.

 

I once had same issue. Turned out the wheels themselves were out of round and would not balance. Fortunately the wheels were replaced under warranty.

I even paid for alignment because they said the offset was different and it needed alignment.

 

So you replaced just the rims on stock wheels and couldn't get them balanced as well? Also how did you find out the wheels themselves were out of round?

 

Road force balance cant fix a bad casting. I installed some customer supplied rims and tires today on a Tundra and they took a lot of weight. I had to warn the customer it was likely going to shake a bit at higher speeds.

For reference, OEM wheels are 600$ each, and many after market are half of that, which usually means a compromise on quality.

There's nothing wrong, and you could try to have them balanced again after the tires wear down a bit.

 

So I used to have a silverado with method race wheels and ko2 tires that requires lots of weights by my tacoma wheels don't have nearly as many weights on em. Is there anything I could ask the tire technician that could indicate a bad casting? The vibration is also intermittent with my tacoma. Sometimes I'd notice it and sometimes not if that adds to any solution.

 

Some roads are noticeable on tacoma, its just not a perfect truck for high speed, we have sections of road where I have brand new trucks shake.

Weights are just balance, but if the wheel is out of round it will shake, even if perfectly balanced.

Ultimately its a quality issue, and there's not a lot you can do, like I said, just drive it, wear the tires down a bit and try to re-balance it later.
