    I recently put new 20" wheels on my truck and have had nothing but problems with the vibration and steering wheel shaking. I decided to have the tires balanced to see if that was the issue but that did not help the situation. After rotating the tires I discovered that the drivers side front wheel does not seem to snug up flush with the hub after fully tightening it on. I put the truck on jack stands to see if I could shake the wheels at all and found that wheel to have play. I checked to see if it was the hub or wheel bearing and discovered that the whole wheel had play due to it not tightening up against the hub enough. Its like the studs are to long or the lugs are not deep enough. Has anyone seen this before and does anyone have any suggestions??

    Did you compare the driver's side lugs to the passenger's? Do they measure the same?

    Sounds like the wheel has the incorrect size hole for the hub and you need hubcentic rings to make it fit properly.
