I have a GU Wagon which is very sensitive to tyre balance between 90-100Ks i am looking at Centerpedes 35x11.5 .noise and slight front wheel shimmey doe not bother me , but my current Cross ply 35s are un balancable(425 grms out) and shake the car at an unbearable amount.
can anyone give me so feed back on how the run down the black top
Thanks.

mine were fine until i put them on beadlocked rims and they then needed over 900 grams each.
they gripped better than my BFG muds in wet and dry bitumen and were far better off road.
all lifted nissans seem to get that shake around that speed...i fixed mine with drop brackets for the 7"lift.

My simex s are fine on the road, as long as they are aired up to 30 psi . I run the simex tubes aswell and they are balanced, with lots of lead hangin off the side.. shane...

These ARE
these are used instead of castor plates .............these drop boxes correct castor /keep the radius arm sittin nice and flat which also keeps less load on the rear radius arm bush so its not maxed out wen sittin and normal ride height
