I guess for that question well have to find one that has them installed.

But judging their video on the 10inches wheel,, you can clearly see that the wheel still vibrate Wheel test before the tech stops it.

So I suppose it may reduce a very bad balanced wheel but to make a perfect balancing.... <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... ey-013.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wtf:' /> dont know.



For the hummers, they fit only H1.

yea I am curious, does anyone have these installed??

I believe my price is a set of 4!!, Would be getting them from Travis.

I will definitly check that out -1 or 4--either I can fill my tanks or loose a bit <img src='http://www.canadianhummerclub.com/forum ... um__no.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':umno:' />

I think they were helpful for those with the crappy steel one piece wheels [they were often out of round, bent easy compared to all the other oem wheel types].



Given the cost [ie if its a few hundred each??], you are better off getting a set of alloy aluminum 17" wheels and have them properly balanced on a machine that simulates road force [like a Hunter].



It's a band aid solution and any h1 that's within OEM specs should not have any vibration or shakes. My truck can go up to 90mph with no pulling or vibration.



If you do have issues then I'd check something in the steering and suspension system. Could be a bent center link, bad pitman or idler arm, or worn radius/tie arms, worn control arm bushings or even a loose/damaged runflat inside the oem wheels. Any of these can cause odd vibrations and shakes at certain speeds.



Or if you are using bias ply tires, switch to radial.
