Vibration Issue

I have an 07 F-150 Super Crew 2wd Lariat. it came with factry 18's nad it rode like a dream. I changed them out with factory 20's and bought a brand new set of Perelli Scorpion ATR's. The truck now has a very bad vibration in the steering wheel when you get over 60mph. The wheels have been balanced twice and they are perfect. Is that just how it rides with 20's or is it something to do with the Perillis'?

I'd take them back to the store and try and get a new set of tires replaced, to eliminate the possibility of tire defect. My mom's escort had one like that where a tire was bad from ford... only showed up after about 75 though so no biggy. balanced fine and everything too...

Take it to a shop that can road force balance the tires. I had a very similar issue and they balanced fine on a standard balancer. The dealer had them sent out to be road force balanced and all is well now.
