Hey everyone, I searched the forums on steering wheel vibrations but it sounds like most folks that have issues are from the factory, not after a tire install.
I just had installed 33x12.5r22 Terra Grappler G2 tires installed on my OEM Limited 22-inch Wheels. They look great. The only problem is that once I hit about 60 MPH I get a mild vibration in my steering wheel. Before this set up I had the factory 20" limited wheels, which had no vibration. Therefore I am pretty sure I can narrow it down to the wheel/tire set up.
I have not ever had A/T tires, so this is new to me. I know the ride is usually degraded to an extent, but I thought that would just be comfort over bumps, etc., not a shaky steering wheel. For those of you with A/T tires, do you still have a smooth steering wheel when going highway speeds?
Furthermore, I did not get any kind of alignment when I did this (my car is brand new, and the tires are roughly the size of OEM). Are there any concerns with this that I should be aware of?
Would appreciate any guidance or experiences. My next step is to take them back to be sure they are balanced correctly, but wanted to seek some feedback before doing so. Thanks!
