: Balancing 35's in SD

I recently got a used set of BFG MT's for my rig. They are ok until 30mph then I get a death wobble. I can accelerate through it, and it wasnt there with my old tires.

Any suggestions on where to get them balanced? The dealership I work for tried to static balance them, but made it worse.

Mark,

Just about any tire shop should be able to spin balance 35's

But considering that larger tires do accentuate steering geometry problems as well as the balancing issues. I reccommend Roger Daniels Alignment & Brakes. He can balance them for you as well as ensure nothing else is wrong or in need of repair.

Knowlegable and honest guy. He is located in Santee. He is an avid offroader and knows his way around jeeps.

I am a little biased as my daughter works there and Roger is a member of TDS

just because you have death wobbly due to new tires does not mean its the tires. Check your trac bar. When I say this I mean jack it up and have someone rotate the wheel (really check it for ANY wear/movement). Its most likely not your tires being out of balance.

good luck
