Steering wheel vibration 2013 SR5

G'day guys

I have a 2013 Dual cab SR5 Auto

I'm having some difficulty in finding the source of a vibration. The vibration is felt through the entire vehicle, steering wheel, seats etc and makes the steering wheel wobble. It is most noticeable when the car is cold then decreases slightly once the engine has warmed up, or maybe the tyres? Anything above 95km/hr it starts to get quite bad.

I've had all four wheels balanced 4 times by 4 different shops and rotated and the vibration is exactly the same.

I am running King steel wheels with the imitation beadlock (yep they are hard to balance but the last shop reckons they are bang on).

Tires are Pirelli Scorpian AT only 2 months old, had MT before and same problem

On the freeway when i turn say left,the vibration actually disappears then slowly comes back as i vear right or go straight.

So if the balance was out the vibration wouldnt disappear.

Where do i go from here?

Cheers Dave

Put a another set of wheels on and see if there's a difference

In my old girl the culprit was worn ball joints in the control arms and steering rack ends. Got them replaced and some new tyers and good as new. :D
I love my ute but not as much as my dashound does!!
I just put a 3 inch exhaust on the ute, now the D4D sounds like a V4!!!
