Western Massachusetts Tacomas

Or an access cab off road manual, which they sell in Canada, but not here.

 

Hey All,
Where around berk county can I find a road force balance machine? For some reason I haven't found a store in the area that can balance my tires for more than a day.

Thanks!

 

Tire Warehouse doesn't have one?

 

It does! I just got off the phone with them. I had been to the dealer and vanior tire, maybe even one more, and they all only lasted a hundred miles maybe. I am going down there today, need to do a service on the taco too, so I am going to try to do the balance then bring it over to the dealer right after.

Thanks!

 

No prob! I thought they did have one there. But if you haven't been able to hold a balance there might be something wrong with the tire. If so the road force machine should be able to call that out

 

Don't go to tire warehouse unless you want your stuff fucked up. Bunch of retards there who couldn't find their asshole with a flashlight and a map.

 

Mavis has balanced most of mine, 33-35s and have never had an issue. No idea how so many Taco people have balancing issues on wheels and tires under 35's

 

if you cant fine one, Ive got one here at my work. Cernak Buick in Easthampton. Probably a little further than you want to go though.

 

Just sat down in their waiting room figured I’d check the forum...have a 15k service next week so hopefully they don’t mess it up, but if they do I’ve aleady got an appointment

No idea either never had an issue with this before, I think the tire might have an issue.

Well if it keeps up I might have to! Either that or get the dealer to switch out these tires.

 

Hey it's your truck

 

Cheap tires, tire issues, cheap wheels, stick on weights, lazy workers (good enough mentality) lots of different things can cause balance issues.

 

I hate the stick on weights. Like the hammer on kind.

 

It survived a balance, at least for the 20 miles ride home. Watched them do it. Hand started the nuts, then hit them with the gun and went to everyone with a torque after. I'd say he did it right. I am sure there are lots of guys all over the country that would skip some of that though.

I think I had stick on weights and good enough mentality issues. Wheels are OEM Toyota and the tires are Falken AT3s. Some might bash falken but people have had a good track record with the at3's on here and other places I have seen. Never know when one might come out of the factory funky though.

Thanks for the help guys!

p.s. if anyone is at all interested, my rears were both out of whack. 1oz on one and 1.5 on the other.

 

I do as well, but they eventually compromise the coating on alloy rims.
I have the stick ons on the F'n'J.

 

Seeing that Toyota is using old FJC colors, I wouldn't mind a Taco in Army Green.
Almost got the FJ in that color.

 

I had issues with my AT3Ws with accelerated tire wear. Was close to the wear bars at 18k I want to say? Falken ended up buying them back. But they balanced well

 

@Bridge4 Call City Tire to see if they have a machine.

 

I have about 13-14k miles on them, and they have tons of tread left. Hopefully this time holds.

I like city tire, have used them in the past, for some reason didn't think to call them today.
