Is anyone running this tire? Did you have trouble getting them to balance?
They are rated favorably with the Tire Rack, so I went to my buddy's Pep Girls shop and got a smoking deal on a set. They shake so badly that my steering wheel starts wiggling 52-65mph! I looked under and they put weights on the inside lip and no weights for the outside of the rim (stick ons in my case). I went to another shop with a Roadforce balancer to get them squared away, and they said that they could not roadforce balance and that they were all in need of tons of weight - the worst wanted 11oz on one side and I forget how much on the other. It was insane. They suggested finding another shop to pull the weights and going to equal bags.
I have to go back to Pep and see my friend to make this right, I'm just not sure if this is so bad that we need to yank the tires and put on a different set, or if equal bags are really the cats ass? I only ever rode in 1 dmax with equal bags and it was odd - seemed like bad balance at slow and hyper speeds and ok in most other situations. Opinions? Thanks! Wally
