Hey all, couple quick questions since Im on my first set of 35's
running at 34psi. shop had at 38. On Rt114 17's.
These are the 315/70 Lts so load E. I live in the NE so temps are mostly 30-45
Curious if you run weights or beads. Never heard of bead until I got my MT baja boss 35s. Shop asked if wanted them and I told them Im fine with weights. beads seemed strange since you would be out of balance unless you got enough speed for them, maybe that doesnt matter though bc...
Even if balanced perfectly, are 35's just a rougher ride, than even 33's? I assumed I would loose some comfort but seems like I feel all road imperfections. Wheel isnt twitching in my hands but I can feel road vibrations and Its a little more amplified when you get over 40mph
I had a friend that has these same tires and had to get rebalanced like 3 times. Now bc of that, he has me thinking mine arent balanced. Seems ok on highways, only a sight roughness that I put on the tread style.
Also of note, I am still waiting to get into shop to have my rear looked at and repaired. Was rear-ended a few months ago. got estimate but no repairs yet, so maybe something is out of wack there too.
