Default Hello from a newbie....

Hello all, I'm new to the site and I can't wait to waste time on this site at work just like snowmobile related ones I'm on. I worked at a Chrysler-Jeep dealer for 10 years. Now... a non-comission life. This is now my 10th DCX I've owned since 1996. 2-Cherokees, 2-Grand Cherokees, 1-Liberty, 2-other Rams, and our current Grand Caravan. Leasing used to ROCK! Anyway... check out the new ride (hate the name color). So far in it's 1st 10 miles I've just swapped out the crappy stock Goodyears for a set of Cooper Zeon LTZ. Belle Tire did the work and gave me $125 trade for each of the 4 stockers and I just had to pay the differance. Had the Goodyear HP's on my two other Rams... boy did they suck in rain, snow, dirt, and mud.

Any vibration issue on the highway with those tires? I am asking because I saw a few complaints here and there with vibrations over 60 mph. I was thinking if there is as issue I would put the balancing beads, although they say not to withe the tpm system.

Oh crap, welcome and nice ride...love the colour and the tires especially.

I've had it over 60 a few times in a 55 zone... but not for extended periods. Can't wait to get her on the highway and some back country dirt roads. No issues so far with the tires. They really make it look truck like. In the few shorts days of having it... 1st people coment on is the color and 2nd the tires. Guess I made a good choice.
