Just added some larger (and heavier) tires. Went from the Bridgestone 255/70-18 to the BFG KO3 275/70-18, also got the Eibach 2.5"/1.5" coils. One shop mounted and balanced, another did the coils and the alignment.

The IG ran smooth during the Bridgestone miles (1650) but now has a vibration that becomes noticeable above 65+ mph, I mostly notice it in the steering wheel. I was thinking of having the tires/wheels road force balanced to see if that tames the vibration.

What is your experience with road force balance?

Thanks, there is a Discount Tire across the street from my office. They balanced the tires/wheels for me (I don't think it was road force) and my problems went away. Cost me $80 but it the lifetime balance. Didn't ask if was the tire's life or mine.
