GOODYEAR WRANGLER AT/R TIRES

[long]

Anyone brought any of these lately i brought a set of 4 Dec 1st and from the day they were fitted i had bad vibrations probs went back to the dealer 4 or 5 times they would reballance them and every time they were out of ballence.
So i took my 4x4 to another shop got them to ballance them while they were being done we noticed that 3 of them were out of round one front tire had 135grams just on the outside of the mag wheel.
Once again back to where i got them from they checked them out replaced all 3 of them
even 2 of the 6 new ones were out of round so much you cloud see the tire tread moveing up and dowm about 6-8 mm then the boss man told me that this is a common prob with these tires since Goodyear NZ have been getting them out of South africa and not aussie or the states

Guess I won't be getting those again for the Zuk if thats the case

we sell them at work and i have neva had that issue with any of them or had any complaints. maybe it was jus the batch that they had brought in, we sell heaps of them no come backs yet and all seem to balance well......

Ive got a set of 31 x 10.5 x 15 that have done about 30,000km on the surf. Are about a third worn. Great tires for beach and gravel driving , handle the mud ok . Quite an aggressive tread for AT/R
I would consider them again.

[mud_slinger]

i agree the at/r is a quite aggresive tread

No one is desputing the aggresive treat pattern thats why i put them on but 3 out of the 4 tires put on my 4x4 were out of round enough for them to replace them and if that wasnt enough 2 of the 6 tires got in were out of round as well not that all tires got in were checked untill fitted to rims.
