Flat spotted the tires??

Oh, I failed to mention: If the tire shop gives you the line that truing and matching will void your tire warrenty go somewhere else.



Also you may need to go to a truck tire center in that most car tire places don't do this. It brcomes a lot more important when you are buying 18 tires to ge them to last as long as possible.



You may need to call around to a few places. The last time I moved it took me calling around to several places before I got one that new what I was talking about and didn't give me any bulls### about it.

HUH HUH HUH, You a funny Guy.



Actually, the rear weren't near as bad as the fronts. Which, BTW, I replaced last week.



Might just bite the bullet and get new ones.

A bit of a flat spot shouldn't cause *that* much vibration. Besides, the RWAL should've prevented the rears from locking up too hard.

BINGO, we have a winner!!!



I found the problem at the LSTDR meeting this morning. Both front tires had large chunks of rubber taken off.



These tires were exactly 2 days old. .
