Somthings just not right!!!! Airsoft Balance Update

[Gunner]

Well the tires wobble a little not too bad really, but just for S&G's I threw one of them on a balancer. 25 oz. of wieght is what the fun little machine said. I have 16oz of Airsoft in each tire. Tire is centered on the beadlock, no run out, blah , blah. No biggie really I can get around and they don't wobble much so I'll just leave it alone.

On a side note, the tire "tech" asked why I took the independent front suspension off my XJ. I gave him an odd look and simply said. "Cuz the shocks were too big" and he said, "ya they can get pretty big" and kept messing with my tire. ????????

XJ, 38's D44, 8.8, Beadlocks.

Tire balancers dont spin the wheel up long enough for the bb's to do their job.. that test will always come way off.

Thats what I kinda figured. I was more shocked about the "tech's" comments, then the 25 oz....

Yeah.

I get lucky that the guy who runs my local tire store is a jeeper, so he is pretty good about having his staff do what they are asked and not try to interfere with their little brains :)

I too tried to spin my tire up on the balancer the first time I put airsoft pellets in.. with simular results.
