problems with wider wheels
So I've had my 9" wide wheels now for about 1/2 a year and my steering something (can't tell what) pops/ creeks when I turn right, and right only...could that be from the wider tires? Sound is coming from drivers side only.

RE: problems with wider wheels
There's a TSB on it. Mine started doing this before I got my wider wheels. It's the steering rack if I'm not mistaken (just going by the TSB)... but at any rate it's happening to my 04 too. Sounds a little like a pop/clunk/creak all mixed into one and only at like two spots on the turn to the right.

RE: problems with wider wheels
The dealer will probly try to NOT fix your problem under warranty because of your aftermarket wheels.
If you still have your stock wheels, put them on.
If not, burrow a friends stock wheels for a day.
