    They are balancing them and dismounted all 4 and re doing it. He is writing down all the numbers on the balance if they still don't ride right he is going to order me new ones.

    That may just be the issue. I've heard of a few instances of a bad batch of tires

    They gave space to sprint and cut inventory. The one by me is open but it's half and half.

    All I need to do is ground my mount I guess if @Rattletrap66 chimes in hahaha.

    I grounded mine to the frame, the bed is composite so no direct contact with the chassis.

    Me too
    He kept saying my spacers are not helping and I should take them off

    Me too. Walmart pretty much said sorry we didn't install that's between you and bfg. I went to the same discount tire that has mounted these and balanced 2x today being the 3rd. He put them on the Roadforce machine and re balanced them after I had the other shop balance them hahaha. I've been dealing with getting tires balanced for 6 hours.

    I got him to order 4 new tires so that if one of them are bad we will have at least 2 good from my set. I blew up on the assistant manager at Walmart and left a really long patch of the tire in the service area. Then when I came into discount tire I came in sideways. The guy knew I was coming from Walmart pissed off. He did a good job of calming me down though and didn't try to bead around the bush.
