Default Brake shake?

06 ccsb sierra i just put a set of 20s on and the brake shake is out of this world i put new rotors and pads on and it still does it was wondering if the extra weight of the wheels is doing something to the antilock system or any suggestions my rack felt a little loose on the passenger side any suggestions would be appreciated thanks Jay.

sounds like you need a balance or to pull the brake clips off. 20s shouldnt shake it unless theres a serious problem... loose wheel, warped rotors (which is possible even in a short time), brake clips, etc.

the rear is drums on your truck. take the clips off around the stud.

aftermarket wheels sit completely flush normally so this causes a shake real bad

Yep, those clips won't allow most aftermarket wheels to sit flush and torque down properly
