    Long story short..

    2021 Tundra SR5 Crewmax running 265/70/18 Nitto RG with Raceline Outlander wheels.

    This is now the 3rd set of Tires from Discount Tire in under 2 months. Started with 275/70/18 E rated Terra Grapplers that were not able to balance after 3 attempts according to DT and were swapped for 275/70/18 Goodyear UltraTerrains. Still had issues with bad vibrations over 50 mph that they were able to duplicate, but suggested I drop down from an E rated tire. I agreed as I’m over dealing with the vibration. They also swapped the wheels to ensure no issues with the wheel and the vibration was still there. Ended up going down to a SL tire 265/70/18 Ridge Grappler. Issue with vibration is gone and all seemed good. Two days later (today) I noticed a squeak/chirp coming from what I believe to be the drivers side front end/wheel area when going over any bumps, pot holes etc. I was able to get a short video clip and wanted to get any input here before I spend money at another tire shop as I don’t want to go back to DT for a 9th time and have them touch my truck.

    Tried to embed the video through the post but didn’t work. I’m going to try to copy/paste the link. Hopefully the quality is still good vs. what it sounds like from my phone.

    I haven’t had time to jack the truck up and check yet and of course the tool for the wheels wasn’t given to me from DT so I either have to order one somehow or go back there and get them to give me the lug remover tool that fits the Raceline wheels.
