    Got some Michelin LTX AT2's several weeks back. Had them balanced 4 times in 2000 miles....can't get them to smooth out at 65mph....weirder still, sometimes the vibes get worse and then better without doing anything. Also, developed a hard right pull right after getting the tires....fixed with an alignment. 2 weeks later, hard right pull again...I've done nothing to knock the alignment out. I would expect balance and other issues with E rated or serious off road tires....but mild AT Michelins?

    Truck is stock.

    Any ideas?? I'm bout ready to warranty the damn tires.

    They sound like they have high road force which makes them seen like they are out of balance. I'd probably just have them warrantied rather than continue to fuck with them.

    I'm off for a few days after tomorrow, will talk to the shop manager at the place I got them from about it. Honestly if I do get a new set of tires might just go with M/S2's....

    Not all tires are created equal. I agree with Mike. It's the tires. You can have the tire itself checked for balance. It's usually oval shaped instead of perfectly round. It may only be one

    Just invest in one of these little toilets and privacy tent that they sell in any camping section and any store that has an outdoors deptartment.
