Michelin Tires...Maybe Not

[Joe Camper]

I have all the wheels and tires off an 07 chassis. 315-80 drive 365s steer & tag. Recent new owner, recent alignment. I see the new shims in the lower a-arm pass side. Same side where the tire has the outer shoulder wore off of it.

Why that tire was left in that location I cant answer.

So the boss says "Think we should check all these tires for balance and move the steers to the tag."

Absolutely.

The left front 365 with the outer shoulder wear that we r moving to the rear took 18 oz of weight to get it balanced initially. Not a typo 1Lb 2oz.

Says the bus drove fine and im sure it did. Isint that amazing.

He had them deflate it, brake the bead, turn the tire on the rim 180 degree and it took 3 oz to balance it.
