Not that I know of or research online. I ended up finding a shop that uses the Road Force machine and pretty much fixed all my problems. There is still some shake but now I cant tell if it's just b/c I don't use as much tire as the stock or it's b/c the wheels are still bad... but I can live with it for now..

It was like $25 for all 4 tires. Really a steal if you ask me. Yes it pretty much fixed it, but you have to make sure you have hub centric wheels as well, otherwise you will not fix the problem.

06 Silv LS modes:

22's 305/50/22 tires
New Adjustable Gabriel HiJacker shocks in the back
Brakes have been checked (good)
Tires have been balanced twice
Alignment has been done twice and I have replaced the tie rods

For the past 4 days I have taken this truck to two shops and they both say the have it fixed but the shaking is still very annoying at the speed given above. I do realize that the comfort of the ride will be different given the change of wheels/tires but come on this is horrible.

I don't know what else to look for to change in order to, at least, stop the shaking/vibrating at 60-70 mph? Where do I go from here? I'm tired of dropping it off at the shop every morning and hitching a ride!

Suggestions? YES - I have used the "search" feature but nothing seems similar to my problem?
Try having the drive shaft true done and balance
