Heck, I've been in triple numbers with my 245-75-19.5 16 ply recaps. My tire guy told me I shouldn't be doing that with such a heavy tire.

If balancing is an issue there are these bean bag type things that go inside tires and when you start driving they break apart and the beans settle where needed. My friends dad owns a local wheel shop and thats what he uses whenever he mounts any big m/t's so he doesnt need weights going half way around the rim to balance. Just my $0.02

Just keep in mind when buying caps they may be all painted up pretty, but they're still used tires. The bags of stuff for balancing are called equal and theres diffrent sized bags depending on tire size

I use bb's in the 19.5 tires for balance. Cheap and it works.
