NICE! I had those tires on an old Ford and they worked better then anything...wore out quick though...

[BeaterXJ]

yeah, my jeep is strictly trail. if it were a DD then LTBs would not have been an option.............they are so soft they left rubber on the ground when I rolled them accross the shop:eek:........j/k

The hard part is just seeing my rig chilln' in the shop, I can't wait to take it out!

These tires come in perfect at 6lb on a 7in wheel.. you'll probablly want to run them at 8 with your wheels.. Also, if it's trail only then why are you running weights? Think Air soft!! :D

Yeah, the airsoft balance thing is something I want to start doing. Don't you need a crap load of those things to balance a tire that is out by 6oz. or more?
Also, where do you get those things ?

[Dave@desertfab.com]

Wal-Mart.. Get the white ones, they are heavier.. We use 12 to 15 oz in 35's..
your 6 oz out on the out side of the rim, inside can be way more..

Easy way to do it..
Remove wheel and tire from Jeep.
Use lift and block of wood to unseat bead.
weigh out 12-15oz of air soft pellets in zip lock bags.
press on bead of tire to cause a gap on unseated side.
pour in pellets..
air up tire to reseat bead
re-install wheel and tire onto rig..
execute over agian untill your done..

:D

And now I wonder why people are paying so much for those Dynabeads. :D

[tywilson88]

i heard the dynabead stick together after a while, and become one big clump... i heard it is bad to use them, and air-sof pellets are better.
