With only 20 K miles on the truck, when I had it serviced at the dealer in Spring TX, service mgr ask if the tires had ever been rotated or balanced. Never had it done, the dealer in Scotsdale AZ said they dont rotate the dulleys.
The rotate and balance made a smother no viberation, or rumble.

Just thought I would pass it on, for what it is worth.

This is why I use tire balancing beads, tires are always perfectly balanced.
Most most people don't realize that a tire's mileage rating only applies if they are rebalanced every 15k

How do you like the beads? Did you balance the tires and then put the beads in or do you just use the beads? I read that you can do it either way. I have the beads and plan on using them only.

 

I rotate and balance the tires on my 2500 at every oil change (6 to 8 K)......and by the way, I HATE doing rotate balance on a dually. That can be a back breaker.

 

Love the beads, use them on all my rigs and will never go back to the old way. I use beads only but have the shop check for roundness on new tires on the balance machine. They do this for free.
Beads are the only way to go.
