I have a set of 305/70/18 on my forerunner with wescott lift. Since install it has a bad vibration on the highway after about 110 kms/hr. It does seem more on passenger side.
Just wondering if anybody else has had vibration issues with the larger tires as I’m sure that will be the feedback from the shop I will get

What came first, the Chicken or the egg?
Was it driven after the lift install to see if it had vibration or were the tires installed at the same time as the lift?
Both can cause or amplify vibrations, Try a road force rebalance for the tires and an alignment check for correct suspension geometry.

Had the tires put on rims and balanced at one place and lift and tires installed and aligned at another.

If you still have the old tires and rims put them back on and see if the vibration is still there then you’ll know if it’s the lift or the tires.

Either a weight fell off or it needs a rebalance with roadforce to check tire radial runout

Taking it back to the shop this afternoon To have a look at it. They suggested maybe hub rings and a rebalance over phone.

It's likely your tires need to be rebalanced. Either they didn't do it right, weight fell off or they didn't road force them. Are your wheels hub centric? Lastly it could just be a bad tire(s). It happens once in a while where there is a defect in the tire causing a wobble.

You need a chicken to lay an egg. Still not convinced? In the Bible it states "In the beginning God created all living things" Still don't know why the chicken crossed the road. :)

Oh the westcott Spacer Lift saga continues!

I tried the PEAK Spacer's 1.25" And let me tell you I ended up doing it right with the Old Man Emu MT64 Suspension set up! (Happy Now)

I do hope you figure it out because nothing worse than a vibration at any speed.
