Tires are severely unbalanced

[Valrog]

Greetings! Got some Pro-line tires for my Typhon 3S and there VERY out of balance. Couldnt put enough balancing clay to counteract. Shook so bad the vehicle was uncontrollable. Is there anything i can do to fix them? I thank you and bid all a good night!

I use 1/4 oz stick-on tire weights and cut with a die grinder for less weight/profile.

That disappointing to hear as much as proline charges

If they’re that bad can you exchange them?

Ill try it but i still don't think t will be enough

They was bought 2 months before i tried them and always forget to check this a gift. So yea hammered on this one. Sorta of a bummer cause the stock tires didnt last long at all. But there cheap.

For testing, just try stick on some change. RC clay is extremely light per volume.

5 Pennie’s are a 1/4(.25oz)
Nickel is .18 oz
Quarters after 1965 are .2 oz

Buddy mentioned on Amazon Prime theres a box you can tick. Said it would change the return time start to the day opened.

Did you drive the tires for a few packs first? That’s what it takes to get the foams to settle before balancing them. Double check the balance after another 6 to 10 packs also.

It sucks but I had to use a lot of golf lead tape to balance mine; otherwise they shake the car so much you can't drive it proper or have any fun.

But it made a huge difference; I went from wanting to throw them away to really liking them.
