Keep in mind that speed rating is at full load at max pressure. Even the most fully loaded 80 does not come close to a loaded HMMWV in terms of weight. I ran mind on the highway 70+mph for hours on end, and have never had a tire that ran as cool as these did.

Here's a pic of my 80 with 37x12.50x16.5 Goodyear R/T II with custom welded Toyota centers etc. I have not wheeled these...haven't even decided wether or not to use them at all. The second pic is almost the same rim set up (different rings), and on a different truck. Thought I'd share :cheers:

Other truck is boots4's 60. His truck makes me want to run those wheels and tires on my own 60.

Do you have balancing beads in them or any kind of balancing? 0 for 2 so far in this thread with the recentered beadlocks. Anyone have any positive experiences with them?

Should be able to do stick on weights. At least these are the pressed centers rather than the flat ones, so there might be some hope if balanced. Mine took alot of weight to balance on normal rims. but they run with no wobble.
 
wobble

My wheel bearings are kinda sloppy so I tightened them and drove about 50 miles and no wobble but it just came back and the bearings seem to be even more sloppy now.
Seems like the two nuts on the spindle keep backing off on there own.I think its time to call cDan and do a complete bearing job and new steering stabilizer and beads in my tires

Pretty sure I posted up positive experiences, as have others. Mine are perfectly true and run down the road great, I love them.

93CRUISERE, your wobble at 30-40mph is likely your wheel bearings. Setting them to factory preload is not enough, they will loosen back up again. As you said 140 pounds per corner is rough on bearings. Tighten them up a bit more than factory specs and you should be ok.

thanks for the info.
What are the odds that my steering stabilizer , trunnion bearings,wheel bearings or all the above are worn a bit = the wobble?

Probably somewhat less than the fact that you just installed 140 lb pre-worn military tires on your SUV :flipoff2:

I dont' know, what are the odds that you're not running the locking washer star thing and that's why your wheel bearing nuts keep backing out?
