P1000 To balance or not

I have a freind that owns a ture shop that does all my offraod tire stuff.

New tusk beadlocks going on my 29" terabytes.

To balance or not, any body do it

I never have, but it won't hurt to do it.
I might do it if I did more road riding.

 

[Scoop]

Nope. Not for offroad.

I started balancing all the tires on our trailers. In the long run it’s easier on bearings and etc. Never done it on offroad stuff.

@Jason W
I have Tusk beadlocks and found my 28" Terrabites rode like crap on pavement, new.

Tried my friend and trusted tire(ture) shop and they balanced the best they could with conventional stick on weights.
They even broke them down and remounted.

I still wasn't pleased so, I took all the weights off and added balance beads.

The balance beads took out 95% of the 22 to 30 mph hop.

Pleased with the ride on all hard surfaces, now. Tires are wearing great, too.

Try them first and add beads if necessarily.

I've been balancing trailer tires for. Long time, it's a must for me

As you probably know, offroad tires come with an orange circle stamped on them. Line that up with the valve stem and you're supposed to be pretty well balanced. I'd be interested to see how close it is.

A tire that's bouncing at 22 to 30 mph isn't out of balance, it's out of round. Balance issues don't show up until the mid 50's.

IMO, worth what U paid for it.

Yep, worked for my rig.

Dont wait your time and $$
Unless your riding pavement most of the time @50+ mph or it wont matter or notice. Unless your anal about things (Nohmo) and think it will
Ease your mind by doing so.

Iam too (NoHmo) but I still wont balance a any tire on my UTV. Cuz Im that particular about things that I know GD well that the min I was to go off road and smack a rock the fucers would be out of balance some dam way, throwing a weight, sticker weight or loose one of those them dam binwa balancing beads and it would drive me crazy and Id have to do it all over again🤯 Thats just me lol.

Also, i did line up the dots on the LT tires on my Pioneer, I have to drive the road about 5miles off trail (paved) to town at my cabin doing 50+ in spots. Couldn't tell the difference. Sitting on the dam motor and MT nobby tires, its like what I would think sitting on a giant viberator would fee like😂 NOHMO FO SHO!!!!
