Unstable wobbling at high speed under hard accel

[thatJeepguy]

Its either balance on the tires or at that speed she needs more downforce… enough wind resistance to unload the suspension to make it flighty.

Lots of possibilities here.

1.5” is not insignificant as it applies to lift. You also have wheels and tires. Do you still have the OEM combo?
I’ve pinned the speed limiter and not had any of that nonsense. I’d try the OEMs - hopefully on an airport runway, not some public road because we like you and all, but not enough for that kind of bail money.

Found the problem I think. The Method wheels Pacific Wheel sold me have the wrong hub bore diameter. And they’ve been on for months so I guess I’ll just have to shell out more money for the correct wheels.

The center bore of the wheel is bigger than the hub. Dude who installed the wheels months ago neglected to say anything. This tire shop found the problem.

Many Method wheel models only come with a 94mm hub bore option. Technically they work on our trucks, but they are lug centric.

Dang. I will never buy them again. Thanks for the information.

I am on my 2nd set of Methods and have not had an issue.

What lug nuts are you using? Where they torqued correctly?

I have my 20s in the garage. I will measure them tomorrow. And I will measure the 17s on the truck. See what I come up with. I know I have been over 100 mph without your issue.
