24" On Yukon

[winst1]

I picked up 24" rims on my truck. But it rattles at high speeds? Could it be the tires? Or does my truck need an alignment?

I assumed you had the tires and wheels balanced. That would be my first concern.

 

I would also check to make sure all of the lugs are tight.

Well I would hope so. I did buy these from a reputable tire shop here in the west coast. They did the balancing / installation. Now I have them wrapped in Hancook. I went around tightened each bolt & they are on there pretty tight.

I don't know much about the brand. Would the tire brand make a difference? They are wrapped on Hancook.

Hub centric or lug centric wheels? If they are lug centric, look for the little clip that holds the drums/rotors on the wheel. You'll find it on one of the studs.

 

Otherwise, I'd make sure they are balanced correctly.

Good luck

Sorry, I don't have any suggestions for you but those wheels look good on your Yukon.

Looks good, but they don't ride right!... THANKS THOUGH!.

 

Stevens07- Thanks for the recommendation about the lug/hub centric stuff.... But what would I be looking for? i.e. what do I do if they are lug centric & find that clip? Do I remove them?

 

Sorry... I just know how to change my oil, add air, and do a tune-up!. Nothing too critical.

Did they use the clamp on weights or the sticky back ones? I had this problem before and the sticky weights were in the very center of the wheel and they were rubbing the brake calipers causing a clicking noise. They just moved them out a couple of inches and everything was fine.

ahhhh!!! I see... I will definitely take a look when I get home. Thanks!.

If those clips are on the studs(which the wheel will have to be off to see) just pull them off. If the truck drove fine before the wheels and tires , then it s a balance or fitment issue. Don t really understand if it was all installed at once? The last thing you did before the rattling is probably it. If it s all new bring it back and tell the shop who put it all together for you.

Thanks guys... sorry for the update. Anyway, the sticky ones were used and lost during my ride around town. So it was rebalanced & all is well. Thanks again.
