fritzdixxon Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 It's a sham, my dad, I and other friends of ours ran them on our rigs for 6 months on our steer tires and the results were more than disappointing, anyone who tells you otherwise is liying to your face. Like I said mixed reviews but still going to give it a shot, cause well it wouldn't be the first time I reinvented the wheel just to form my own opinion good or bad. Quote Link to comment
Busta Nut Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 how? Probably being over revved......all I know is they had to fork out a new engine for the guy..... ..........I get my stories through our tool guy....... ........he does lunch with us every week and BS's about the local shops....... Good times...... Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Oh, I'm sorry, I thought this was the Datzenmike/Flatcat FML thread, why isn't everything free like communist Russia!? Tire machines cost money, you need tires on. Yes, I think tire mounting for old-school "regular" tires is too expensive. So what did I do about it? I bought an old center post and I even have an 80s Bear spin balancer. They're not the best, but they work! Except for the race car, it's too low pro to do on my equipment. That I take down to Schwabs. But of course, managing a NAPA store does have it's perks. ;) Sorry Flat. 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 That's fine. NAPA still sucks. Remember, I didn't start this thread. My piece has been made. Just for shits and giggles... 1 Quote Link to comment

HRH Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 I'll make you feel better Keith. I got the balancer for free. :) Luck of the year on that one! Oh, and OReilly's sucks even worse. Ask my new assistant. We poached him from there! Lol. 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 How does any of this help me? I'm actually getting poached by a different dealer around here. Really just waiting on the offer sheet to come back. Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Oh, help YOU? I'm sorry, this was all about ME!! :D But I will gladly let you borrow my wheel and tire balancer if you want to take a trip to Spokane. 1 Quote Link to comment

maltese Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 OK... BTL... I get free stuff from Les Schwab too. Managing a parts store does have perks. I've used airsoft bb's to balance my tires. They worked ok most of the time. I'm about to try them in my 37's, because who can get 37's to balance anyways? And..... Please don't have Walmart work on your car. Sheesh! Quote Link to comment
