Default Help with 35's

So I recently put 35's on my 03 Screw after pitting a level lift on her. I seem to get fairly good wheel wobble at about 80-90 km/h then smooths out again after that, I've have the wheels balanced 3 times and it still does it. Has anyone else had this problem? someone told me to look into balance beads and that it might fix it, But I wanted to check here first and see what you guys had to say. I should also mention the front end is sound, been through it top to bottom and its just about all new.

Your steering parts could be worn, what kit did you put on and I had the same problem with my 03 with a RCX and level. RCX says the level can't be on it and the guys that were working on it said the angles were fine. I got rid of the problem by selling it a buddy and then he sold it a year and a half later so I'm not sure if it ever got fixed.

Check ti rod ends, and get a dual steering stabilizer, that should alleviate the problem.
