I have a lifted Street Bronco (driven 2-3 times a week) and I’m getting ready to install (4) new 38x12.5x15 Swamper TSL’s (Bias), do I need to get these balance and will balancing even up?:confused:

Thanks
 
i have found over the years a basic bubble balnce will be the best for these.

but i have never tryed the bb's or balence beads.

thay can be fun to get right with them being bias ply.

my 2 sets i use to run always had a spot 35mph ish that vibrated.

most of the problem i think was out of round tire's if i had acsess to a tire trueing machine to do them on the rims on the truck i would of loved to tryed that. those will be at big truck shops.

few years ago one of the magazines did the truing machine on a set of 44 swampers . thay said it was like a new set of perfect tires and rode great.
 
A friend uses 12 ounces of airsoft ammo in his wheels. Says it works fine up to about 65MPH.
 
50 % water and antifreeze, about a pint works very good!
 
Tires on

Had the 38's installed Friday and added 10oz's of BB's to each tire and the ride is great!!!!

Thanks for everyone's help.:beer:
 
I ran 38" SX's for a while and never balanced them. They were fine up to about 60-65mph.
