Mike Melton demonstrates Road Force balancing a Nitto G3 tire. The balancer applies 1,200 lb of simulated load and finds only 19 lb of force needed, showing the tire is nearly perfectly balanced. He calls it the best all-terrain tire on the market.
POV of Road Force balancing a tire. Number 1, take the damn sticker off. Take it off. Step number 2, make sure you're using the flange plate. Balance it by the logos, it's a better balance. 3, make sure all your weights off. If you have weights on the inside, take them off. If you got clip-ons here or clip-ons here, take them off. Now we got everything set up on the balancer. It's set on LT, LT rollers ready to go. Hood's down, we got it spinning. Now here in a second, that roller's going to come down. What that roller does, it puts 1,200 pounds of force on that tire, simulating it being driven on the truck itself to diagnose any kind of vibration problems that we may have before we put them on this truck. Now the roller's on. Now it's going through the system diagnosing any issues, any radial runout. Here in just one second, that's going to come off. Now it's off. Get that out of there. Now look at that, only 19 pounds of force, zero weight. Look at that, we just spun it, zero weight on this thing at all. I know the haters gonna say, ah, there's weight in there somewhere, there's weight in there somewhere. Nitto G3 is definitely the best all-terrain tire you could buy on the market, don't care what you say.
