So i got a new set of DuraTracs a couple days ago... They took ALOT of weight to balance (SEVEN ounces on the front side on one...) and i'm now noticing a shake/vibration/wobble between 110-130kmh that was not there before. I would instantly assume tires are still out of balance but the steering wheel does not vibrate/shake anything, but the Jeep does. Does this still sound like a balancing issue?

Sounds like the rears r not balanced properly. Just my 2 cents. Sumone correct me if im wrong tho

Still sounds like balance.

These are the goodyears? I'd go back to whoever put them on.

I have 35s on mine and run up to 80 MPH and over without any vibes at all!

We have 33" Duratracs and no shakes/vibrations at 80+.

80mph in a lifted Jeep? Wow no wonder she shakes and wobbles. You boys should have considered a Camaro instead

That speed here would get you about a $400 ticket

Guess it's back to the tire shop. thanks guys. Oh one more thing... The tire that took seven ounces to balance, would goodyear replace it? Seems a bit ridiculous.

I had one Duratrac that was on as a spare, and after about a year I did a tire rotation, and noticed a shimmy. Removed the new one, took it into the dealer, and told them it was not balanced. All my tires have balancing beads, so they took it for a couple of days, called me and said they couldn't balance it no matter what they did, so they put a new tire on it and threw some new beads in and it has been fine since. They never charged me a dime.

Not here in SoCal, you get run over doing less than 75 on the freeway.

I have Duratracs and smooth as can be up to and slightly through 80mph. That's about as quick as my 3.8l will go

The tire shop I deal with always has me come back in the next day so they can make sure all the lugs are tight.
