Word of mouth is the best { or worst } type of advertisement and I will keep this in mind when starting to shop for wheels / tires for my truck . Best of luck with this issue and hope you get fixed to your satisfaction ?

What rim are you trying to put them on? If stock rims, you might be getting to much float. Trying to punch the tire in to much and blugging the tire?

Good point F_ast; my buddy used to run BFG muds on his truck and Discount Tire wouldn't put a new set on his rims & offer the warranty anymore because they had problems with them coming apart on that width rim.

Well, that sucks. Should be perfect wide. Maybe try having the rims spun without a tire... maybe the rim is out of true.

Is it just one tire or all of them? Make sure you go to a place that has a laser pointer machine for balancing.

I feel for you..I had a similar issue with my General tires I got from Tirerack.com. I had to take my tires to 3 diff shops and none could get them to balance properly. Finally had to send all 4 back to General to get a new set. I must say that the CS from tirerack and general was top notch, no finger pointing or passing the buck. General even refunded me the cost of my initial tire balancing.

Good luck man! The stuff I hate the most is when you spend your hard earned money and get stuck like this...
