It was time to swap out my tires to another set that I had for the truck, Size 315-70r-17 BF Goodrich All Terrain TA's.
When Seth was visiting a while back, He suggested that I used Balance Beads, instead of the usual tire balancing. I had never heard of this before, but he runs themin his Dually and has had them for quite some time.
So I did some research on them and decided to give them a try. So I bought some Air Soft Pellets from Wall Mart, (Cheaper than the Beads) and according to the tire chart needed to use 8oz of pellets in each tire.
I have to say that I am IMPRESSED, The truck has NEVER driven so smooth, even up to 85 MPH. The difference is truly amazing so far. Now I have only put on about 40 miles so far, but am very happy with the decision.
Just wanted to Share, and say Thanks to Seth for the tip!
