My truck came with the 16x7 alloys. The lug holes weren't true on the rear ones. Almost egg shaped. Plus I have cheaper mud tires and the guy at the tire shop said they wouldn't balance correctly..so he put them on the back axle instead of the front. Before I got new rims, my dad and I jacked up the back of the truck and I put the truck in gear and got it up to 45 or so where the shaking was the worst. Both rear tires bounced up and down and side to side.
