OK so I decided to go up two sizes on tires. I was only going to go up one but got a killer deal on some BFG All terrain TA's.
I know about the spead difference when going from factory size. My question is in the shocks...
I've noticed with the new tires at 60 to 70 mph, the handling gets a bit rough.
Is this due to the size, or tire? Should I get beefier shocks?
Thanks

When you handling's rough, do you mean the wheel shakes?

I just fell the front shaking. Nothing changed but the tires!

Couple of questions...

Are the tires new??

Are they balanced??

If not new, are they cupped??

How much air you running in them??

Are they balanced?? I think so, they said so. I'm taking them back to have them rechecked!

If not new, are they cupped?? no

How much air you running in them?? I haven't checked, but then again when they got mount and ballanced, they said thay are!

Well I'll let you know as soon as I get them checked!

Thanks
