I like it but not for a 2012

 

Looool!! Go through in reverse and use the passenger controls

 

I was going to go to the one in Pawtucket.

You have a tire shop that will mount and road force balance without charging an insane amount?

 

dealers and Tire Pros

 

Firestone, mount and road force balance for $100. You'll pay that at town fair tire even when you buy the tires there.

 

She already looks taller! Goodbye brush guard, hello approach angle

 

rob mentioned road force balance. they charge you more, and they get pissy with you. realistically, 85 bucks, I was 15 off. sorry.

 

Ya Mike you are right I went to Sullivan once and asked for the road force balance and they did get rather pissy.

 

Standard at.firestone. No extra charge. It's the only machine they use.

 

Not the one on 44 they sucked when I had mine done. They didnt have the right weights for my GMC alloy wheels I kept throwing weights

 

Ive heard horror stories about the Firestone near me. I guess its like anything else, service really varies store to store

 

Not just store to store but tech to tech. I finally got a good tech and always asked for him to do my balance and alignments

 

They can still use the road force machine and not road force... Tire warehouse does it. You have to ask for road force balancing and pay a couple bucks extra because "it takes them longer".

 

I had them road force balanced, its the only machine they use at the place I went to. It's a rim and wheel repair and refinishing place.

I bought load E because they don't make the bfg at in 265/75-16 in any other load range anymore.


the shaking is pretty steady from 57-67 then pretty smooth at 70 which is now 74ish mph. the shaking can get so bad that I can see the bed constantly shaking on the truck on a smooth road.

Other than this problem I like them. I was going to get Duratracs, but I spoke to a couple guys who said they rubbed without a lift.

 

I'd rather trim some plastic than deal with shaking.. That sucks man.

 

Weird I have both those tires and don't have any issues with them shaking .

 

While we are on the subject here...who has had duratracs and would you recomend them? I remember mike said he didnt like them but i forget why. I need to make up my mind on tires soon.

 

Ask Miguel that is his latest tire desire

 

I've had them on since march and I like them. I haven't drove in the snow yet but I'm sure they will be fine . What size you going with ?
I want to try out the MTR's next set I get .

 

285/70/17 after i get my lift installed they are ganna be pretty heavy, hopefully i dont regret it
