I had Costco install the tires on my new Warn wheels, and they stated they could only static balance them. I’m getting some steering wheel wobble above 60 mph, but it is intermittent, and I can’t induce the wobble, sometimes it’s just there. Wondering if I need to get them balanced elsewhere? What do you guys think

I had the same problem, BFG KO2 37s. The fox 2.0 IFP steer stabilizer was a game changer for me, easy to install. If this doesn't fully fix it, and it may, then try a better tire balance option. There is something called road force balance but not available in my area, but the fox is the best money spent so far for me.

Be sure to slowly turn your steering wheel full left, then right, slowly per instructions about 10 times, best 170 bucks spent for me

Could be tire pressure too high, balanced inadequately or alignment issues that creep up more when changing tire size
all these things should be looked at closely before a steering stabilizer, however I do agree in getting a better one than the stock, but not as the initial fix!
