05 Sequoia steering wheel shake

4 brand new firestone tires.

4 wheel alignment.

All parts are good per firestone.



I have a very noticeable shimmy or shake in the steering wheel from 65-75



Have had it back to fires tone 3 times and they keep telling me the same thing.



It’s the road.



Any ideas ?????

Lug nuts not tight enough?

Depends on the tires you had and what you replaced them with (different size, type or same?).

Worn suspension bushings possible. Can also be issues with the rear wheels/parking brake not adjusted properly and the front is trying to compensate. If worse with breaking, can be warping rotors / uneven brake piston engagement.

And sometimes these things come about, regardless of recent work on, but from time and the elements. But with that much info, it could be all sorts of possibilities, including manufacture recalls.

By now, it should have been figured out. So this is mainly for others who have similar issues and want to search.
