    Southeast Texas line-x in Houston is expensive, I could have told you that. I had my sliders done by them. FYI, if you dont get the color bright option they have, the line-x fades.

    I love it, but right now I have figure out how to fix the leaks from the seams...

    Funny. They did mine yesterday when I had them do a 5 tire rotation and my tires are now un balanced. Also don't think they do 5 tire rotations very often. They looked a little confused when doing it

    I say balanced... meaning so far this is the best they have got it... haha. This is the 3rd discount tire I have been to and the 6th time I have had my wheels balanced. I still have vibration at 60 still but its not near as bad as it was.

    Not very many people have full sized spares with a matching rim.

    Had it done 5,000 miles ago and told them I wanted the standard 5 tire rotation. Done. This time I tell the guy I wanted the standard 5 tire roation (obviously to maintain the rotation sequence) and he told me they dont have a standard. :confused:

    What say you? You work at DT yea?

    They do have a standard. The "spare" goes to the right front, and the right rear becomes the new spare. Normal rotation pattern after that. Somebody's a FNG . :rolleyes:


    But there's the whole tread depth situation. If the tires going to the rear have less than 5/32nds, they can't do it. So that screws up the whole thing. And honestly, i've only done a 5 tire rotation twice. And that was on heeps.


    Too many damn rules :eek:

    It's even more confusing doing a dually with white letter tires :goingcrazy:

    You have to dismount/remount and rebalanced them. :eek:

    Negative. I know it wasn't the same tech as last time. If it wasn't such a pain i would do it myself.
