You guys tired of me posting in here yet?
I took my tires to the auto hobby shop here on base and used their "Trained Auto Hobby Shop Personel Use Only" dynamic tire balancing machine. Discount tire didn't even get close... I had to put an around 12 oz on each wheel... holy crap. And I noticed the tires weren't exactly round. So while one vibration went away, another has surfaced, and it's ugly. I will be calling discount tire and asking if I can get some round tires.

Yea I don't wanna run 35's anytime soon. Don't wanna spend the money on re-gearing or a lift. I gotta get an alignment though so my driver rim will stop rubbing on the control arm at full lock to the left

Sucks. My tires cost an arm and a leg, but they're worth it! BFG Mud Terrain KM2's got em for $1200 out the door mounted and balanced at discount tire. no vibrations and not out of round. phenomenal traction.. my old set which were bald KM's (not KM2's) had no problems getting traction in 1.5' of snow..
why would you put a lift and big tires on a 2wd?

Why lift a 4x4 truck just to drive it on the pavement (not saying that YOU do, but people do)
And I think my tires measure just under 32", so why bother going to 35"s?
