Steering wheel vibrate

[greasefingers]

If a tire is not balanced, it will vibrate/shimmy. Also a cupped wear pattern will begin to show. If a vehicle pulls to one side, without braking, then I would be more worried about alignment. Do both tires look like they have the same wear pattern?

You can test their strange theory by temporary switching the front tires only. If the t4r pulls in the opposite direction then they are correct. However, I highly doubt it. Also make sure all 4 tires are at equal pressure.

If you bring it to a toyota dealership.. they will charge you.

I've had problems with balancing as well.. but last week our dealerships got the Hunter machine in and did a balance for me. No more vibration at 100km/h, 150km/h, 180km/h... went VERY smooth. Just make sure all wheels are balanced and have enough PSI in each of them.

I was told that my vibration was from full time 4 wheel drive but never the less I went straight from the stealer to the tire store and got some bfg's

Did switching the tires remove the problem?

Thanks everyone for they input.. I'll take it down to the stealership and in the mean time check on my tire pressure monitor because my spare tire is gone and the light is not on the dash....

:wtf:
