Switching tires back

I put BC coilovers on in the spring and some performance wheels/tires. I switch the wheels back to stock for the winter and I'm getting a wobbling feeling, pressure is good- will have balancing checked. Any ideas on whatelse it could be? Are the stock tires made to be on a specific side and I mixed them up? Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Wheels might not be seated properly. If you had it done at a shop, and they used an impact at any point to put the wheels on, that's likely the reason. Take them off, get it nicely seated, tighten them properly, then see if that helps.

Thanks for the quick reply- I did the change with a hand wrench- I triple checked the lug nuts and they are tight- do you think I could have set a tire wrong or offset?

Try putting the rear tires in front and front to rear.. See if wobbling continues?
