So I took my truck into firestone today for a tire balance and rotation... after doing so he informed me of a problem he ran into. i have to much lateral and radial movement with my tires and rims... he says it is asking for almost 12 oz of weigh on each wheel to balance it correctly...
basically what he told me is that my tires and rims will never be able to be balanced and that he susggests buying new rims and tires...
heres where I need a lot of help...
if this is the case, can I call my rim's company and ask for a new set because of a defective product?
should I buy new rims?
what about tires...?
is this even possible that the radial and lateral movement can be so bad that they cannot be balanced at all?
Keep in mind... I basically have no money for either new rims or tires... maybe one or the other but that is pushing it even...
