Default I am about to put 20's on

I am about to replace my 17's with 20's. (2009 Silverado) Sounds like letting the dealer do it is the way to go?

i was just wondering if anyone could specify exactually where these clips are cause my buddy is having the same problem. Are they actually on the studs themselves, and if so are they on the inside or outside of the drum? thanks anyone got pics?

Negative,
read about the Mangnuson-Moss Warranty Act.

Manufacturer is obliged to PROVE that any changes made are the direct cause of the damage that they do not want to cover. They can rarely produce this evidence.

I just fnished taking the clips off and like magic, the pulsation is GONE!!!! Thanks for the tip.
The clips are on the outside of the brake drum (are copper color) and appear to just hold the drum in place when all the lugs are off. They aren't necessary for anything.
Amazing that a 4 cent clip can cause all that pulsation!!!

Thanks for the great tip!!!!
