Hey guys first post on the forum, been a proud owner of my 2004 F150 XLT Supercrew for just over 2 years now.

I had picked up a used set (mounted but not used) of 20x10 -12 Monster XDs for my truck. Love the look, however I have been struggling immensely trying to get rid of this terrible wheel shake at highway speeds.

I have had them rebalanced by 4 differing companies now (2 local, 2 big box stores) one which had them road forced balanced, however I still get the wheel shake at around 100km/h (60mph)

Now with the road force tested it showed the following specs as far as wheel runout goes:

Front left: runout 0.17
Front right: runout 0.12
Rear left : runout 0.31
Rear right: runout 0.22

Now I dont know if these numbers are whats causing the truck to get the wheel shakes, or if perhaps its a faulty set of hubcentric rings or bad lug nuts?


Before I go and re-order a new set of 20x9 with a +18 offset, I want to ensure that a new set would fix the problem, and maybe with these numbers I was basically just scammed out the individual selling these because perhaps he had the same problem which is why he swapped down to 20x9 +35 offset, though all he stated was he needed to sell them because "they didnt work with his lift kit".


Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

 

Have you looked over the front end for wear? How many miles? Any mods to the truck?

Ever resolve this? My XD wheels have always been good on my trucks. I've had them since 2009.
