As for shaking- I haven't had a problem with shaking, but ANY imperfect balancing of the driveshaft, brake rotors, hubs, wheels, tires, ect. will become blatantly obvious at the speeds in question. My main problem so far is an obnoxious amount of wind noise past 145 as air begins to force its way through the door seals. Also, the passenger side tow mirror has this bad habit of folding itself up every once in a while at "higher than normal" velocities, so I have to fold them up- else it does this-

I should have used a bigger number such as 20Ks or 25Ks, but i do know that my
04 CC DRW LB 4x4 is only rated at 12.5. The newer 05s go up to 19 or so, but 15 is technically over the limit on many trucks, just not as much as 20 or 25 haha.
