I have two 14 Silverado crew cabs, 342 rear end, 4x4 trucks with the Goodyear 20 inch SR A tires and Chrome wheels and both are smooth as glass. 5,000 miles on one and 2,000 on the other. NO VIBRATIONS or any other problems for that matter. It is difficult to understand why some people have the vibration and many more do not.

I agree! The only thing I had was a Rancho shock issue.

The continental tires may be the cause but I seem to remember some complaints about the Goodyear tires too.

At least in your case it pretty much points to the drive shaft that was the problem.

Or the Mitchelins.

I have the Continental 20's on mine and no vibration up to 90 mph. 2400 miles so far.

I got my truck back again on the 24th. One new tire and changed other 3 tires off of another truck. Much better than it was, but still shakes. Get up to 80 and you can nut in about 4 miles. Gonna drive it another week before I take it back. I keep it a week they keep it a week seems to be the process. I have the 18" good years.

First time I got up to speed in my AT Sierra w/ 20" Goodyears I had vibration...2nd time I had a little less vibration. Last time I got up to speed I didn't notice any vibration.

 

Putting 1,500 miles on over the weekend through New Years, will have plenty of time to see if I have vibration and if I do whether or not its just snow or ice in the wheel...

2014 GMC Sierra

SLT AT

crew cab

short box

Built in MEXICO 9/13

 

I have the vibration also between 65 - 75mph. The passenger seat shakes like hell, the steering wheel has bad wobble. My dealer had tire shop next door install BFG All Terrain 285/55/R20 before I picked up the truck so I don't believe it is the tires. I was waiting on the first oil change to have several problems looked at. Like most on the thread between my wife and I we have purchased 9 GMC trucks and Yukon's since 99. I guess I will have to deal with the BS (BEND OVER) and trade the SOB in on a TUNDRA.

 

So far....

headlight moisture

On Star has never worked

sliding rear window noise

bad vibration at HW speed

 

And once you've purchased, GM, or dealer for that matter, doesn't care.

 

REGRET is all I have

 

Don't bother with "We are so sorry to hear, PM your VIN" LOL LOL

I forgot the loud ass clunking noise first thing in the morning. It sounds like the rear end is going to fall out. I'm embarrassed! On the other hand, my wife's new leftover 2013 Yukon we bought a week later has been great.

quickvert1, once you get the Michelins, you may have to find a good shop to properly balance them. Most dealerships are not real good at properly balancing tires.

 

dredd: what makes you think it is not the tires? the shop may not have properly balanced the tires. Some shops and some techs at the same shop are better than others on a road force.

Tire & Wheel Connection LP installed and balanced my tires, and that is all they do. It only does it bad about 72 mph, and I did test drive without detecting. I will report back with findings when I have time to take off from work, get the run around at the dealer, and be without a vehicle. The vibration is only 1 of the many issues.

    • Not sure about DFM tech but i know there's a stop/start deactivation button. 
    • I could be interested if they axed cylinder deactivation and at least have a button for stop start. I’m sure the HP numbers will be higher. I would want a longer warranty to help build confidence. I’m a less is more guy as I get older. A V-8 work truck model would be my choice. I know a few outfitters for custom additions I prefer. 
    • It's official. GMC pulled the covers off the next-gen 2027 Sierra 1500, and we got the first official look. Full breakdown here: https://www.gm-trucks.com/next-gen-2027-gmc-sierra-1500-v8-trim-changes/   The quick hits: SLE and SLT are dead. The new core retail trim is just called "Elevation". Two new V8s, a 5.7L and a 6.6L built with high-performance Corvette architecture roots. No horsepower or torque numbers yet. The 2.7 TurboMax finally ditches the old gearbox and gets the 10-speed automatic. AT4X moves to larger standard 35-inch tires with front and rear e-lockers, Multimatic DSSV dampers, and heavy-duty Jounce Control Dampers. Over 60 inches of combined display on Denali Ultimate and AT4X, complete with a motorized articulating center screen and an adaptive passenger screen. Seven simplified trims across the entire model line to clean up ordering confusion.   So let's get into it: New 5.7L and 6.6L gas V8s with custom active exhaust tuning and a Corvette connection. Is this the exact engine lineup half-ton traditionalists have been begging for? Purging the iconic SLE and SLT names after all these years to lean entirely on Elevation as the high-volume core. Bold move, or a mistake? That motorized articulating 16.3-inch screen that slides up to reveal a hidden dashboard vault. Awesome mechanical theater, or does it make you nervous about long-term durability? Physically lowering the headlamps in the front fascia to improve road courtesy and stop blinding oncoming traffic. Smart real-world engineering, or does it hurt the truck's aggressive stance? What trim are you putting your name down for on day one? Drop your first impressions below.  
    • My overnight hospital stay turned into five.  I developed a post operative fever and an erratic  heart rate.  A blood clot in the lungs was the culprit.  This is apparently a common post surgical complication and easily remedied.   I was the youngest in a four bed ward and a Doctor with a Geriatric specialization was in charge of my care.  All of the nurses were good and some were outstanding at dealing with old people.  It was very evident that my age triggered a different level of care!  My advice to any senior going for a hospital stay is to have a trusted family member advocate visible.  If not, you will still be well cared for, but you may discover that your voice  isn't as strong as it once was! 
    • $4.25 85 oct. in town, down 50 cents.
