    Vehicle:
    2020 SR5 4x4 Tundra
    - Camper shell - Blackout emblems - SCS RAY10 wheels (18”) - 275/70/18 Cooper AT3 XLT
    Looking for advise on steering wheel shakes since new wheels/tires installed.

    My setup is as follows:
    2020 SR5 DC - sitting stock
    15k miles on truck
    SCS RAY10’s
    Cooper AT3 XLT AND Nitto RG’s

    I have taken the truck to Discount tire 17 times now - tried coopers, and nittos and still having the same issue. They have road force balanced as well.

    Anyone had this issue or have any recommendations on what to try/look at next? Had zero issues prior to changing the wheels/tires and the truck has not been off-road other than county dirt roads at hunting camp.

    Thanks for any help!

    I just picked up a 2019 and on the report it said it had a steering wheel shimmy. They rebalanced the fronts and cut the rotors and I don’t have any shimmy. (Stock wheels and tires).

    Could have a broken belt in a tire. It happens from time to time.

    Considering you have tried two different sets of tires, would think it is not the tires, perhaps the rims. Is DT able to verify if the wheels are true, not bent or defective machining? Tundra's are finicky with wheel balance, not sure if DT can do road force balance, but that would be worth the effort to see if it fixes the issue.
