Tire truing?
« on: June 01, 2010, 02:58:41 AM »
I was wondering if anyone knows of a shop that can do tire truing? My Dad has some 33" mud tires on his truck that have some uneven wear and they are virtually new. An alignment fixed the problem but his tires could use some help.

I'd try the truck shops, Ward Tires, Kal Tire Truck shop or Fountain on Blackfoot.

He could also throw them on the back axle, if they're not too cupped. That should even them up

Heh yeah, thats the cheapest way to do it, change the direction of rotation and swap front to back, should do it.
