I got a new set of tires on my truck. They now have about 3000 miles on them and the shake like crazy. It shakes across the whole range of speeds from 25 mph up to 75 mph. The tires are Dunlop A/T Radial Rover 265/75r/16 10 ply. I have had them back to the tire shop multiple times getting them re-balanced. Has anybody else had problems with Dunlop tires? They make the truck ride like its on ice. Probably to soft tire tread to give it that feeling. My old no name cheap tires that I had on there before these were 10 times better. The truck set through the week and only gets driven on the week-ends (I work out of town and got a company truck so the dodge sets at the house till I get home). Could it be they are getting flat spots from setting through the week. I thought it could also be the shocks, but it just started doing this when I put the new tires on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

How much air pressure do you run? Low air could cause vibration and damage the tire internally. Sitting for a week shouldn't cause them to flatspot, go ahead and check you bearings and suspension to eliminate those as causes. Good luck

 

Only on old bias ply tires would you get flat spots from sitting, and they would go away as soon as the tire got warm from a few miles of driving. My opinion of Dunlops is they are junk. Keep going back, tell them you're not happy with them and you want somthing else.
