Steering Wheel Shake/Vibrate

Turns out it was my alignment. Tires are cupping and inside of fronts are worn, and my rears are all lopsided.

I scheduled alignment for tomorrow. That'll hopefully allow me to stretch the life of these tires since they aren't that old at all.

Thank you for everyone that said alignment or chimed in with other suggestions!

I remember a wise man saying it could be the alignment a couple posts back...

Glad you figured it out

My factory set lasted 22k. They could have lasted 35k but the factory alignment was way off. Both front and rear tires were featherd to hell!!! Hope you get your settings dialed in to save that $$$
