[B][U]I just installed 33's and she wobbles[/U][/B]
I installed 33's on some soft 8's and now in the speed range of 45 to 55 mph I get some wobble in my steering wheel and in the seat (the change in my cup holder rattles pretty good). Is this a balance issue? or is it alignment or something else I am not think of? Also when I had my vehicle inspected they mentioned that I should replace my U-joints soon, could that be my issue? please help me figure this one out so i don't waste $ and still not fix it!

Have you wheeled with it in mud lately? If not and rims are clean of debris and mud get the shop to rebalance all 4 tires and tell them it wobbles horrible. If this does not fix the issue, try rotating your tires front to back and see if this makes the difference. If not it could be a bad tire, u-joint or unbalanced driveshaft.
