    Today I was able to get it up to speed and man does it feel like the truck floats when turning or moving side to side. Wheel not as responsive as with the smaller tires. Other than that they are pretty noisy but I like that.

    They are balanced good, I just put the rings back on with no change either. Some DT's are hit or miss but this one by me I have never had an issue.

    If its the Joilet one, those guys are good! The one by me in Romeoville really depends on who's working. If i need major stuff done (like if the tires wont balance) i go to the Joliet store.

    Ask for Paul, he's the manager. He's the only sales rep I deal with. They back up their work too.

    Does anyone have a recommended spray-in bedliner place in/around Chicago? I've found plenty of places, but just wondering about your experience. I am not interested in the DIY on this project.
