Question Question for anyone from Alaska

Does anybody know of a tire store in either Fairbanks or Anchorage that can do road force tire balancing? I live in Fairbanks, and nobody here seems to have even heard of road force balancing, let alone do it.

I have a 95 F250 that has a vibration problem around 70-75 mph. that I think is related to the tires not being properly balanced. I'm running Toyo, LT235/85R16. I'd like to make sure it's not the tires before I resort to more drastic measures.

redbeast, I never heard of it either. Did you call Tire Distrubution Systems (TDS) or Arctic Tire? Good luck, I hope you solve your vibration problem.

there's a link to what it is. I've seen it discussed a few times on these forums; that's actually how I found out about it. Arctic Tire was a no-go. I'll try TDS next.
