dbreese Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Very nice!!! Something different, not that there is anything wrong with the rallys. They Z wheels will look sharp. Good choice! David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leghome Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Austin are you going to have all four installed the same. Valve stem matching the tires in the same place on all four? Like between the OO's on Goodyear or Goodrich? A nice touch but it can seem anal to the installer. LOL LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL LOL The new tires will have a paint dab on them denoting where the valve stem should go so they balance up with the least amount of weight.

I have a set of rallys that I need tires for and the less balancing needed the better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FASTSS454 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 The paint dab goes right by the valve stem. Think of it like this if the valve stem is at 12 o'clock then the paint dab should also be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
