Just wag here...Take alook at the balance weights on the rims....How many separate weights do you have on each rim...Out side & inside...
When I got my truck it rode TERRIBLE..I pulled the hub caps & took a look at the weights. I some places where they needed 3.5 oz, the installers had used 3-4 separate weights ,sread out over 4 or 5 inches.The correct proceedure would be (1) 3.5 oz weight, which they obviously did not have so they thought many would do the same thing. I took all the weights off untill I had a chance to balance them myself & the ride was remarkably improved with no weights. If you have bigger tires, you need to have them balanced at a place that is used to doing big tires....
Mine shook so bad the speedometer didn't work right....

Agreed...A lot of times Vibrations are caused simple by a tire thats not balanced correctly or a tire that has too much "road force." Actually went through this myself a couple years ago...Brand new 35" BFG A/Ts truck shook like a mo-fo between 60-70 mph. Had it balanced THREE times before it was right. Ended up have a place that knew what they were doing put a DYNAMIC balance on the wheels (weights on inside AND outside of wheel).
