I balance and rotate my tires every 6-7 thousand miles. Recently had the tires rotated and balanced. Afterwards, noticed virbation in steering wheel and front tires. Took the truck back to get rebalanced. Work fine for about one day and then heavy vibration again. This occurred on 4 seprate times. with 2 different vendors/companies. I even had the truck alignment redone.

The truck runs smooth after each one these balancing...but seems to revert back to vibration the next day or so.

Help! What is causing my truck to consistantly need to be balanced?

 

Surprised to hear you balance your tires like that (often), I can see rotating but balancing seems a bit much. How many miles are on the tires and the truck. Have you done any other preventative maintenance over time? Ball joints, etc?

 

are these steel or alum rims?

 

I'm curious about this issue as well. I seem to have the same thing. With my winter steelies the truck runs fine. With summer aluminum, even after balancing the previous tires 6 times in one day they finally said the tires had to be bad cuz balancing just rim showed no issues. So they replace the tires,balance is fine and the truck ran fine for a few days, then every time I get between 90 kph - 110 kph the steering wheel just about shakes outta my hands, any slower or faster and it runs smooth.
