im not gonna try and balance them, im gonna run balancing beads in them

I also heard that the wear is comparable to any other aggressive off road tire.



Also, no offense to you but it seems like all the chevy guys have issues with the tires whereas the dodge guys seem to do ok with them. Just something ive found through being a member of various discussion forums

 

I have never seen anything like it, i work at a tire retailer and have installed a few sets of DIRT GRIP tires. my customers ask specifically for me whether it is a BMW luxury or a F-350 with propane and37-inch heavies...because i can balance very well.

anyway customer comes in with a f-350 SRW lifted with propane, stacks...the works with 37-inch parnelli jone tires. On one hand I am like...damn 2 hours of spinning tires to find the sweet spot, taking the hood off the Hunter balancer so the tire can fit...and my aching back! This guy shows me a vid of the truck at the dunes on a ridiculous incline!!! On Jones' not paddles..and he got up quick!!!

same camera... same truck ...same tires at a drag strip doin 1/4 mile in under 13 secs!!!
What the f#%K? Oh and the kicker...70,000 miles out of the set!!!

So now I don't feel so bad because I won't be seeing him for awhile, he tips good and these tires called for 3oz max!! I will be putting 31's on my Landrover.

***I am at a hi-volume shop and would be more than happy to let you know what I see asfar as tires are concerned***Nitto Grapplers do well also.

p.s. balance beads are ok, but make sure your installer doesn't use bead lube and get the air used for inflation as dry as possible or the beads will bunch/ stick together.
