Try the Kumho Road Venture MT KL71 tires in 37x13.50r20... That's what I'm running, and they have been great! Even up to 90 MPH on the highway (temporarily passing someone). 3 of the 4 took less than 2.5 oz of weight, and the 4th one took around 4.5 oz or weight. So, they are VERY consistent tires. They're quiet and ride smooth, too. Pull great offroad, and cost almost the same as the Patagonias. I got my from @Discount Tire here on the forum.Quick update on my choice or tires. I’d gone with the 37x13.50R20 Milestar Patagonia MT Tires. Choice was made because of supposedly smooth and quiet ride.
After getting it back I put on some highway miles. Around 50 mph I’d start to feel the beginning of throbbing normally found with unbalanced tires. At those speeds it was not so much transferred to the steering wheel, but felt throughout. By the time I hit 65 it was very pronounced and through the steering wheel. No relief above 70-75 either.
They'd used bead balance method to balance the tires originally, ended up there was not enough bead weight to correctly balance these tires, even using recommend amount. Had them remove beads and spin balance, using normal tape weights. First tire took 2 oz to balance, the remaining 3 took 12 oz or more. Goes down the road very smoothly now, have run it up to a little over 80 with no shimmy. Also quiet.
I’ve since heard from several folks the Patagonia’s are notorious for unbalance in their tires. You expect some correction, but not 3/4 lb or better. After theses wear out I’ll replace with something else; have heard Nitros are much better balanced tires. Anybody else have this type of problem?
