Mine vibrates the steering wheel when braking also. Rotors are uneven, been meaning to turn them and do pads
Take your rear wheels off and pull the metal clips off the studs if they are there. They're there for assembly, you don't need them now and they can cause vibration with aftermarket wheels.
On NNBS trucks they are only on the rear, there's a retaining screw on the front instead of clips. Stock wheels have a chamfer machined into the back side that lets them sit flush unlike aftermarket wheels.
We'll the wheels and tires came off my buddy's truck. They drove fine and he never had the shake so maybe it's a rotor issue that is now noticeable because he extra weigh?
Also about the clips on the rear studs. I put the wheels on myself and I didn't see any clips. I wasn't looking for them of course but are they really noticeable?

Sometimes they aren't immediately noticeable. There are PLENTY of other people who have forgotten to take them off before and had the exact same issue. There is 2 on either side IIRC. They'll be at the base of the stud and were used to hold your brakes together during assembly. It only takes a few minutes to pull your wheels off and check, that would be my first step going forward before throwing money at rebalances/brakes.

oh, i didnt realize they did that on the nnbs.
going wider will knock it out.
i know my tires are either not balanced good enough or the truck is outta alignment i get a slight vibration at 50+ but not enough to care.
