Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2004 ford f150 has tire nibble between 50 and 57 mph and vibration at 45 mph. several trips to the ford dealership did not fix the problem. they replaced 3 rims and 3 tires (contrack). still did not fix the problem. i placed the spare tire on passenger front due to a flat and it reduced the nibble and vibration by half. i purchased 4 new 20 inch cooper tires and 4 new rims and vibration is 95% gone and slight nibble after 10,000 miles. i will have tires rebalanced and alignment checked and plan the have rear lowered by 2 inches. a friend had the rear lowered by 2 inches on his 2004 f150 and helped with stability and vibration. *nm
