Goodyear Tire Replacement

I originally took my truck in for a bad vibration thinking it might be something in the suspension or steering. But turns out it is tires.
Has anyone had bad tires? I had my truck roadforced and the tolerances were really high. I should be getting my truck back in a couple of days. just wanted to see if this has happened to anyone else. So maybe I will know where to start.

Do a search on this forum for vibration and nibble and you will find about 50 pages on this subject.

I love Michelins!!

Last year my new 03 Ranger came with two bad Goodyears and it vibrated really bad. The service dept put on four new Michelins and boy does that truck roll smoooooooth!

We non-04er's should unbury our guns, and take over this thread!!!! (oh wait, was that my inside voice being loud again).

I had a bad Goodyear (factory), and replaced all of them with Michelin's (I can now here myself think again and I don't have my kidneys rocked outta me)

I have the BFGoodrich P265/60R18’s and had one bad tire. It had excessive road force and was replaced at about 1,000 miles. I know they aren’t the best tires you can get, by a long shot, but they ride smooth and quiet. I’m satisfied with them for OEM’s.
