This is a YouTube video titled "July 20, 2024" containing a single-speaker technical explanation about diagnosing and balancing B.F. Goodrich tires to address vibration issues. The speaker discusses the process of checking tire balance and road force measurements to identify the problem.
Had a customer this time to email me this morning, said, I cannot get the vibration out of these B.F. goodrich tires. Had multiple people try it. So let's see what's going on with them. All right, so taking them off, first thing I see, all they did was static bounce these wheels. That's one reason. All right, now, these things ain't cupped at all. So let's see how these things balance out. All right, so wheels like this, you can't put any weights on the outside. So what you should do is put a weight right in here and right here on the lip. All right, so exactly how we have it set up, a clip on weight and a tapeway. Here we have a setup for SUV and trucks. So let's go ahead and road force this tire. All right, so this is the first of four tires. We're gonna go to each one. So road force is done on it. So it's only calling for 14 pounds of force, which is good. Way below the threshold. Two and a quarter or two and a half and an ounce here. Now let's go to tire two. All right, here's tire number two. Let's see what this thing calls for. There's about done with road force. Man, that's a lot. So it's calling for five and a half here. Five and three quarters road force.
