Operation Cheap Jeep continues on BleepinJeep! In this installment I buy some cheap tires for a cheap Jeep. But hey, they look really good, they ride really good, will they offroad really good? Stay tuned to find out! But in this episode I want to talk a little about road force balancing or force matching. If you've never heard of it don't be ashamed, I had't either until I went over to Jason's shop at Rock Your 4x4! Ohh and by the way, we are raffling this thing off at the Jeep Invasion in August!

Lots of people overprice their junk on Craigslist, but you can also find some good deals too. Like if the ad says "Would make a good project vehicle" it really means it's a piece of shit they can't fix.

@evilassaultweaponeer 7 лет назад

"$400 used but good 33" Chinaco mud claws. Around 50% tread left (1/64"), rims are good (only three of them leak but they'll hold air a whole day if you don't drive it). Will drop off at your place for an extra $50. No low balls; I know what I have."

@Katarinarabbit 4 года назад

evilassaultweaponeer I'll take them

@ManMak6 6 лет назад

Well crap! When I was in college and it was just 10 years ago, I worked in a alignment and tire shop. Seeing this video made me realize how far even mounting and balancing technology has come along. Great video thanks for no music! Just watching a man do his job...something satisfying about that :)

@16driver16 7 лет назад

I really didn't think when I heard how cheap they were they would be that nice, decent sidewalls and everything, awesome!

@dogcrick 7 лет назад

Finally starting my Jeep build! I have had da ton of ZJ's over the years but I finally get to build one the way I have been wanting. Picked up a new Iron Rock Off-road Premium 3.5" lift and a new rear sway bar. Also running some new 31" general grabber all terrains. Can't wait to get the axles trussed, lockers and a winch. I also have the np231 swap with the 5.2. Your builds are good motivation.

@JoshuaBoldt 7 лет назад

you know you're at the right place when there are 30 Jeeps outside :)

@jakevision6859 4 года назад

The yellow dot on the tire is for aluminum wheels supposed to be lined up with the valve stem the red dot the same thing but for steel wheels if he would have done that the balance and run out all together would have been closer 👍😎

@mykecollins3255 7 лет назад

tire machines and balancers are incredible nowadays..i worked in the tire and wheel business for 10 years and was amazed at seeing tech brought into the industry. thanks for sharing.take care.

@Phillma84 7 лет назад

Gotta love those guys at Rock Your 4X4!

@haydenhunt6417 7 лет назад

i go to a tech school, and we have the tire and balance machines like those, and its nice to actually understand what the stuff on there meant. like runout. my instructors never taught me anything past putting the right weights on. that was some good info!!

@scottseifert4086 7 лет назад

appreciate the road force explanation, heard of it awhile back but never knew what it does.

@ManMak6 6 лет назад

Dude you have a great sense of humor! Love your videos, I’m not new to off-roading but a Jeep noob, learning a good amount of info. Thanks!

@bleepinjeep 6 лет назад

Great find! Our 95' GC was an Awesome off road Jeep.

@whosaidthat5236 7 лет назад

Ahh the new mud tire hum on the way home , got to love it

@ralfqwiggum 7 лет назад

Interesting timing. Just had this done on my JK yesterday when troubleshooting front end vibration (problem solved), then watched your video explaining it.

@jwilb007 6 лет назад

well for one that is a great machine but from what i saw at 9:20 there is a yellow dot on the tire that lines up with the valve stem and he didn't line them up so your tire will be farther out of balance than it's supposed to be

@jacobabbott9562 7 лет назад

31's never looked so big.

@RJayRabbit Год назад

Love the guys at RY4x4! Great work and great wheelers. The red dot on the tire is supposed to line up with the valve stem though as I have been taught.

@850DAB 4 года назад

Excellent arts and crafts. 11/10 would recommend

@SardonicBastard 7 лет назад

Hey look on the bright side, you could sell your old, bald tires for $400, right?

@bleepinjeep 7 лет назад

+DullBoyJack probably true!

@brunothehumble 7 лет назад

Shop I'm at has the same machine. It's a pretty spiffy tool. Real useful for elimination wheels and tires as a concern for felt vibrations from the road. Also great for spotting a bent wheel.

@frankpryor8308 7 лет назад

I'd say that was a darn good deal, around $130+ each👍. Heck of a tire and balancing machine, interesting!!!

@CRAMOSinnovations Год назад

Damn that's pretty awesome. When I started watching this I thought I knew everything about tire balancing and tire balancing machines. Good video thanks for sharing.

@punkasskid789 7 лет назад

Looks great with those tires and sounds good too 👍🏻

@TheLuftwolf 7 лет назад

Good job Matt. That was really interesting.

@mattketner7597 5 лет назад

Woah, my 1998 Ford Ranger came with the same set of rims. I always wondered where they came from. Pretty cool to see ahaha

@ANasCarBoi 7 лет назад

I have the same balancing machine at my work. Well used to. We have one left but we upgraded the rest to the newest model which uses lasers and magic to size the wheel and show where the weights need to be placed.

@toddolatheks.1328 5 лет назад

It’s pretty awesome how you can just change your wheel and tire turn cool truck into a bad ass truck!!!! Thanks 🙏

@camronboldenow2973 7 лет назад

ive had those same Achilles desert hawk xmt tires in a 33 12.50 15, my favorite tires so far

@BurningRubberDC 7 лет назад

The intro was really cool!

@eskimo_airgunner2314 5 лет назад

Most all new tires have a dot marked on the side wall from the factory indicating the heavy side of the tire. This typically gets placed either near or away from the heavy or light side of the rim depending on type of rim alloy, steel, TPS. A welded steel rim is typically heaviest at the weld. Some alloy TPS rims are heaviest at the valve stem hole, some are not. These are the starting points before force matching.

@redneckindustries 7 лет назад

Wish I had this info yesterday!! Had to take off my 1 year old COOPER DISCOVERER STT 33"tires and buy BF GOODRICH KM2 tires because nobody could balance them!! Thought it could be those PRO COMP rims, but now the tires are running well with no DEATH WOBBLE.....

@kdigiacomo 7 лет назад

That painted dot on the sidewall is suppose to be lined up with the valve stem.

@John-dz6vm 7 лет назад

I was thinking about that around 9:08 Isn't it suppose to be yellow dot on valve stem unless you have a red dot than "red rules". Something like that. Probably not the end of the world but I was thinking the same thing.

@ANasCarBoi 7 лет назад

John true and true for both of you. You don't need to line up the dots, but if you can and remember to before you put air in the tire, you should do it. It just means you don't need to put on as many weights.

@MrMrsregor 7 лет назад

why cant the folks that put on tires ever learn that ! i have been telling them that for years and they all just look at me like i am making shit up

@kdigiacomo 7 лет назад

Liam S - If he would have turned the tire he could have properly mounted it with nearly no weights. I don't always line up the dot, because I will position the tire until it barely needs any weight. Just because it zeros out on the balancer doesn't mean it's "right". Plus customers here like there tires "show mounted" to their wheels and don't care, so the tire sidewall lettering gets centered to the wheel and never put weights on the face of the wheel. That tire in this vid never should have taken that much weight. I'm not being rude, it's hard to explain correctly by writing on here.

@ANasCarBoi 7 лет назад

K Digiacomo of course that's ideal. That's similar what koeniggsegg does with their carbon fiber wheels. The add a few extra layers of carbon fiber to offset the weight of the tpms sensor so additional weights won't be needed. I work at a tire shop that requires speed because we get a lot of customers because we are in a highly populated area of Los Angeles, and also down the street from the notorious The Snake where jay Leno does his Jay Leno's Garage videos and car and motorcycle enthusiasts up and drive (and very often drift) up and down all day every day so we get a lot of performance cars. If I didn't need to be speedy with servicing a cars tires, I would do what you do, but alas I cannot :(

@matthewgroom8032 3 года назад

Tire tip use side cutters to cut the bottom of the value stem (inside the tire) off and thy pull through really easy and fast

@jackdo1551 7 лет назад

Something mesmerizing about mud tires getting mounted....

@peterdiebel7372 2 года назад

Those new tires look great. I wish we here in B.C. Canada could purchase dem ere too .LOL .Butt seri ouly Bleeper , nice rubber on your Gumby thar. Cheers ,keep the shiny side up.

@kombiitravelers9492 7 лет назад

A bought those tires for my XJ except 32s and they're the best tires ive owned so far , the price of them almost had me skeptical but then I tried them out and they're a quality tire and a great price you can't beat

@OmegaGreedAK47 7 лет назад

This was really cool and interesting to watch.

@johnvela8100 6 лет назад

nice tires and hell of a deal . i my self 37s 38s or 40s . but it all depends on the height i gess .im cheaking all your videos love them all .

@iceman213 7 лет назад

@paulwuzhere 7 лет назад

Really cool video. Pep boys has the same machine, just finding someone that works there that cares enough to use it to its full potential... that's tricky

@Knuck3ls1 7 лет назад

It's not about totally about caring enough, it's about the money. Flat rate guys mostly do care enough but if it's a true road force issue it's a pain in the ass to have to break everything down and do it right and it doesn't pay much, either. And most general service techs that do tire work either don't understand it, or they don't care.

@kendallpetty6281 7 лет назад

I just got a set of these tires less than a month ago for my 99 xj, they are about the best riding mt I've had

@RideorDieDietoRide Год назад

I'm in Crossville, I'll have to check them out !

@txbeerreviews3065 6 лет назад

You should see the balancers we have at discount tire. Ours measure with lasers only so you don't have to use the data set arm which he used to measure the wheel. it does automatic Road Force to measure run out and the hood automatically opens by itself oh I forgot to mention it's all touch screen too!

@eddie9591 6 лет назад

TXBEER REVIEWS Hunter hammerhead? We use them at Kauffman tire. I love it

@leonspringsboystv2025 6 лет назад

TXBEER REVIEWS we had one... Hunter road force... But we barely fuck with tires and it took up too much space. Everyone goes to discount so there's no point.

@consaka1 6 лет назад

That balancer is a lot better than my ancient Hoffman. Pretty sweet, wish I could afford one of those.

@rickrayn 7 лет назад

Love the RU-vid mechanic patch that you have in your store.

@exploreroverland9321 5 лет назад

We usually only road force if there is an issue balancing or an issue with a tire. same with run out, if it says it needs like 10+ ounces of weight you know you need to run those tests.

@shaneclack3234 4 года назад

Need long arms or at least some adjustable mid-length ones for your rear end there to get those new tires centered up in the fender wells

@ReconManTrance 7 лет назад

I noticed your headliner was stripped off. I did the same to mine and ended up spraying a coat or two of rubber undercoating on it. Scraped all of the headliner foam off before I did it also. Looks good, won't sag, and cost about 12 dollars instead of redoing the headliner. If it gets a scuff just spray a quick squirt on it and you are good to go. Just an idea for jeep folks out there who don't want to spend a whole lot or want to deal with headliner laying on the top of your head while driving.

@snugglezbrah5558 7 лет назад

Do a headliner video for cheap jeep. Should be cheap and interesting. Plus it looks like it needs one

@LadyJesterSurfer 5 лет назад

Yeah, I'll second that. Something I'll be needing to do to mine eventually

@juantantan1842 6 лет назад

I found a great deal on Craigslist. Someone was getting rid of literally new Goodyear authorities and wrangler tires for $200 I was able to talk him down to 160 . Still have them on my ranger. They're also 31s

@OvenBak3d360 3 года назад

Also the hub centric cone should be on the inside of the wheel while balancing its meant to simulate the hub centric centering of a normal hub on a car

@tntzimmerman9552 4 года назад

Holy bolt ons!

@WolfKingJS54 7 лет назад

That song you put at the beginning just reminded me of a commercial and I can't remember what the commercial is

@MikeSmith-mp7lf 4 года назад

I noticed that your right rear has 2 weights almost 90 degrees away from each other. Your tire guy needs to calibrate his balancer. The only time you should have 2 weights on the same plain is like your right front where the weight calls for more than 3.00 ounces and they have to put 2 combined weights side by side to 0 out. The right rear is what is know as counterbalancing a tire.

@louielindenmayer6653 5 лет назад

I've punished these 285/75-16 recaps from tirerecappers for 32k+ miles on my Rubicon and they still have over 6/32's of tread. $700 for 5 shipped with the crushed acorn shell and matching BFG carcasses for winter traction. Just mentioning another option than the Chinese stuff.

@dyi01 7 лет назад

You're supposed to put the cone on the inside hub of a wheel when using a Hunter GSP 9700. The front hub bore is to hold a center cap, that's about it.

@chriskelley2249 5 лет назад

@ddial1982 6 лет назад

Holly shit. How did you come up with your visual aid for run out? That’s really cool way of depicting it. I thought this ought to be good when started to explain it. But really good man. I think the way you showed it was right on. I can’t ever explain anything. Well done.

@johnyq9105 5 лет назад

i love that old ford

@CaptainGnarkill 7 лет назад

They look legit. I actually kinda like the tread pattern.

@felixnile 7 лет назад

recently got almost new tires and better rims for my xj for $200 from a guy parting out a car. grabbed a cd player, headlight, and bezel too.

@elfirebeasto 7 лет назад

Looks a lot better. Did you happen to look into a set of Treadwright Guard Gogs or Claws? They are a remolded tire. They used to let you request the carcass that was used. So, if you wanted good sidewall protection and flex, you could request the Claws on BFG KO2 carcasses. Just another cheap option for what I hear are decent tires.

@bleepinjeep 7 лет назад

+elfirebeasto we put treadwrights on Tims green machine.

Wow your right front tires have lots of weights....maybe instal on the rear instead 🤔. Looks good tho 👍🏼

@Str8sixfan 7 лет назад

Tires look really good! Is that like a house brand your buddy sells at his shop? I've never heard of those before, but they look sharp and like the perfect candidate for cheap jeep!

@NeoJelloBro 7 лет назад

I work for discount tire, and we use those same machines to balance! We use the balancers a little different, though. We use the changing machines WAY different, it was actually kinda hard to watch haha.

@bleepinjeep 7 лет назад

+Garrett McDevitt do you guys use the machines to force match?, or do you just have the machines? I've always wondered how seriously these guys take their jobs... I've had hit and miss service from discount tire.

@NeoJelloBro 7 лет назад

BleepinJeep first off, I can all but guarantee that the hit or miss service is from new techs. There's a HUGE learning curve (usually around 6 or 7 months to get proficient) As far as force matching goes, we don't usually force match on the first mounting unless the customer requests it. The construction on modern day tires and wheels (especially on passenger tires, which is mostly what we do) is so good that it's rarely necessary. Big run-outs really only happen on larger vehicles, which have beefier suspension, and more tolerance for out of round tires. But if a customer complains of vibrations after the tires are balanced, we'll road force them. I hope that makes sense. If you have any questions, let me know!

I bought a set of Treadwright tires and have had nothing but problems. Couple hundred dollars down the drain just in having shops try and figure out why they wobble so bad (Out of round). I have contacted Treadwright multiple times just to have them tell me that despite purchasing the warranty they still can't help me.

@_JEBUS 5 лет назад

Cheap tires are perfect for what the jeep will be used for. Not like it's a daily or anything. I went with bfg AT ko2 on my xj but that's just because I couldn't finance cheap tires lol those are usually a cash deal thing. Took me 7 months to payoff $1000 worth of tires but nothing compares to bfg all terrain imo.
