New 20" BBS Wheels on Tahoe

[msbailey]

I just put a set of 20" BBS Wheels on my Tahoe. They look great but I'm getting a bad vibration around 65mph. I have hubcentric rings and the proper washer style lug nuts. The old wheels that came off the tahoe where 18s with nitto grappler tires and they had no vibration or wobble. Any solutions will be greatly appreciated.

Alignment?

Btw, they do look great.

I had the alignment checked and the toe was a little off, not enough to cause a vibration. My next thing is going to be road force balancing followed by new pitman and idler arm. In my opinion, if the steering parts where bad I should have had the vibration with the old wheels and tires.

An Alignment will not fix a vibration.

Either the balance is off or you have bad front end parts but if the old wheels didn't do it then the problems lies with the new tires and wheels.

Those look great, I have been looking at those for a long time. I just can't pony up the coin. My guess would be they are out of balance.

Lucky for me I sold my old set for the same price I paid for the BBS set. Got to love craigslist!

did you get the new wheels balanced?? Also are these brand new or used? sometimes used rims can be bent and mangled causing vibration..
