Bought my 2019 Classic Warlock back in January 2020. Didn’t notice any vibrations at all with truck entirely stock. Then again, I also wasn’t looking out for vibrations as it never crossed my mind.
about a month or so later, I wanted beefier tires. Put on 295/60/20 Atturo Trailblade XT. The vibrations coming from front seat/center console area at around 60mph and up, was horrific. Wouldn’t be able to keep a drink in cup holder without it violently shaking. Brought it back to shop 3 times to check balance. Never fixed the problem.
Finally had them put the stock Goodyear tires back on. Vibrations pretty much went away, but I still felt it on occasion, but nowhere near as bad. I figured the Atturo tires were cheap and main cause of problem.
fast forward a couple more months, I bought Nitto Ridge Grapplers in stock 275/60/20 size. I did not like the wet traction with stock SRA. I figured a quality tire and with the stock size, I shouldn’t have any problems. Well I was somewhat right. Vibrations came back. Not nowhere near as bad as the Atturo’s, but definitely noticeable. Had them road forced balanced which seemed to help a little bit. But I’m still experiencing vibrations.
the fact I’m feeling vibrations with 3 sets of tires has me thinking there’s no way it can be tire related. I’ve rotated my tires as well to see if maybe a bent rim but vibrations stay the same and didn’t move to front of car. Steering wheel has 0 vibrations.
I have installed Bilstein 5100 with eibach springs up front and a 1.5” coil spacer since. I also have 2” wheel spacers. But I had these vibrations when my suspension was completely stock and no wheel spacers.
this weekend I will take out the rear coil spacer and wheel spacers to see if it helps any, but I’m doubting it.
can a truck this new have driveshaft issues? How would I check? What about rear shocks? I was thinking of installing the Bilstein shocks in the rear.
I took it to dealer and they tried to blame it on my aftermarket exhaust (carven progressive muffler). But again, vibrations were there before this modification. They also said could be tires but I just had them road force balanced. Then they charged me diagnosis fee for doing absolutely nothing.
it seems the more aggressive tires are making these vibrations feel worse, but they were still there with street tires. I’m debating selling the nitto tires and putting some Michelin defenders on but I like the AT look. But I’m worried this shaking could lead to bigger problems down the road if I don’t get it resolved.
any feedback will be appreciated
