Millars on Euclid Ave. in Bay City 989-684-2411. I had them do a set of 39.5 TSLs for me and they rode great, 70-80 mph on the e-way no problem. Drove it to Lima and Indy Jambos several times. Have them put Equal in them too, takes the bounce out of them.
thanks but bay city is way to far. i think i found a spot a half hour from me
$15 a tire...
Dynamically balance them. No need to take to a shop. I know of some guys using golf balls in their 40's but forget how many. You can also use airsoft bbs which is what i would do. I put them in my 33's and they worked excellent. Had a buddy do the same with is 40" tsls. 7000 airsoft bbs a tire and they went 70mph no problem. Plus they help to balance ur tires when you got mud and p00 in the rims.
idk about golf balls but i have balancing beads in them right now and it dosent seem to help.
so is that the standard amount 7000 bbs per tire? or does it differ from tire to tire?
No i dont think thats the standar amount. i forget the website that says how mant but i know 7000 was more than what the site said. I had to put more than what the site said in my 33's. I have to say it does depend on the tire. Make sure you use airsoft bbs. how many you got in there now?
about 2 lbs of sand works....
idk for sure. i call the shop give them the size of my tire then they tell me what i need in this case i think it was an 8oz bag for each tire

hope it helps
thanks J.C.
Yeah the innovative site was where i went to and what they listed for my tires definitely wasnt enough. I had 33 12.5 Baja claws and they said 8 oz which i think equalled out to about 1250 airsoft beads. But i ended up puttin 2000 in each tire and it worked.
