20x10 -19 wheel guys inside please

TT32VGT · February 13, 2017

I have this setup on my truck along with a 6" fabtech.

Ive heard the -19 can put a lot of stress on the ball joint and other parts of the suspension.. could it be possible that the stress from the -19 wheels are causing the slight vibration and roar/noise at lower speeds?? It seems different then tire noise, I can almost feel the slight vibration through the steering wheel. weird

pics of suspension.. anything look weird here?

All the angles of your ball joints and axles all look great actually.. noise your hearing could possibly be a bad wheel bearing? Judging by how clean your suspension is I'd guess your truck doesn't have many miles on it so that would be strange to wear out so fast...

Are those tires toyo at2s? And did the noise start right after the lift/wheels and tires?

TT32VGT · February 13, 2017

ya toyo at2's. its a '17 slt w/ 1200 miles now. i did lift and everything at 300 miles.

it was silent before the lift and wheel/tires. it could be the tires. but its pretty silent when ya let off the gas or get above 45mph.

also could be the tire balancers I guess. the shop use the ones where ya never have to ablance them again supposedly. not the metal weights on the back side.. i think they are a bunch of bb's or something in the tire..?? they can make noise i believe. maybe its them

thanks!

it could be the tires.. and me not being used to them.. but very weird.

Probably the balancing beads in the tires. I saw a thread another member started not too long ago about hearing a weird tire noise and he had the beads as well. There is no way something is worn out already with only 1200 miles on the truck. Your angles look great.

Back when my wife had her jeep, I put those same tires on it, at slow speeds it hummed pretty loud and made a vibration felt in the steering wheel and pedals... so it's prob the tires or the balancer they put in, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
