My first "big" tires

Run them around 25psi and they will wear dead flat (a good thing) I have run mine at 25psi for 2 years with perfect wearing (along with keeping up on rotations).
 
It look's like about atleast 6oz. of lead weight's on that front left tire. Did I win the prize? :D

I've been waitin' for someone to comment on the weights. :tongue1: That's the only way the shop would balance them. I haven't had a problem loosing weights yet, had one get flattened out good but that's about it. I figured if I have a problem I'll do something different. And I'm going to paint them black.

I'll try that out. Are you running 8" wheels? I do get free tire rotations, so I plan on taking advantage of that.
 
Hell my 35" MTR's do pretty well at highway speeds and I have ripped most of the wheel weights off on rocks and most of my rims have some pretty decent rock rash and bent lips. Even my MTR that was somewhat out of round does great on the highway. I can do 75+ mph without vibrations or any problems.

Make sure you take advantage of the rotation. MTR's need to be rotated regularly. I would have the tires rotated at every oil change.
