Normally when you go in a professional shop for OFFROAD the garage have the good tools for balancing tire. When I have installed my tire I have rolled my tires a good two weeks before balancing and I is not terrible.

And no one has ever made a negative comment to me about them, in fact everyone said they liked the aggressive tread pattern. JMO, they were worth the money.

You are an auto w/ 4.10s on 37s right now? How is the drivability? I have 2012 JKR manual 4.10s and I am ready to go up in tire size - installing a 3.5 RK kit this week - but I am shying away from the 37s since I've heard I had to regear. I don't want to spend 1500 on regearing, blah.

And the price I paid puts them in the range of cheaper tires for my size (315/75/16).
Its a heavy tire but they seem to be a top choice for hardcore guys here on JKF. I know a lot of people have done the Nittos because they a generally the cheaper Toyo option but its worth seeing if the 37's are following the same pricing phenomenom that the 35's are right now.
