One problem with buying the tires and then going somewhere to get the "road force" balance: if one of the tires can't come into the specs of the Hunter Road Force machine, don't expect the shop to exchange the tire they didn't sell.Some tires can't be brought into spec.
If you buy the tires from the shop that has the gsp9700, there is a good chance they will just go back and pull out another one if one doesn't come into spec.[QUOTE=Tom Piper[/QUOTE]

for the rears. In my area discount or gm dealers are what I had to choose from, so discount basically told me"whatever it takes" and they had another set in a day. Tom brings up an exellent point
