Anyone tried putting three golf balls in the tires to try and balance them? Particularily on 38" SX's that are just mounted, no balance. My rear two wobble so bad at 65, the whole truck looks like it's gonna shake itself apart. Just curious if anyone's tried it and what the results were.

Take it to a shop that gives lifetime balance. That way when they don't get it right the first time you can take it back and get it done again for free.

I think this only works on golf carts. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

Or you can try equal. Goto any truck shop. And ask them for it. Thats what i will be using. Should work fine.

LoL you guys make me laugh. yes it does work, only at speed tho. no i havent done it and if ya did a search you would have found this topic came up last week or so. DONT USE EQUAL if the least bit of mosture gets in the tire it will clump up and not work.

I don't think it would hurt anything. TRY IT! Now the post should have read? Who's got the best balls?? ......Titlest or Top Flite? Titanium core?
If nothing else it will sound cool and you'll probably get better mpg! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Bring them over to my shop and we'll give it a try. I have a tire machine. <IMG SRC="smilies/eyemouth.gif" border="0">

IF your gonna got to all the trouble of putting golf balls in your tires, wouldn't it be easier and cheaper to just get them balanced. <IMG SRC="smilies/skull.gif" border="0">

[Bigger Valves]

sounds like it could work to me..

isn't it the same idea as those centramic wheel balancers or whatever?? they have stuff in 'em and at speeds it all evens out and balances a seemingly unbalanced wheel?? frankentaco runs 'em and i think they're used on lots of semis and stuff.. yay???

1st nobody seems to have a machine that will do tires over 36" so he probely can't just have them balanced.
2nd, when I get my 4D's on I want to try the ball thing, but wonder how many to use, try it for all of us, test with just 1 at 1st, not sure how much one weighs, but the weight will be farther out from the rim so less weight will be needed.
