    When I think about it I would say yes,try a set.It's just $189 and u might get an extra couple of months even in a logging operation.Keep us posted.Might be some other loggers on here that are interesed in your results.:biggrin_25525:

    Hey T, let me know if you start bidding on a set. Theres no need for us to bump heads:biggrin_25516: on the same set. lol :biggrin_25525:


    I wonder how much difference there would be in a set made for 22.5 vs 24's. Hate to buy some for my 22.5's since I don't plan to have them for very long. Any thoughts on this guys n gals?

    Centramatic "ON-BOARD" Balancers mount to the vehicle, (between the wheel and hub on the front and between the wheels on the dual rear). The balancer dynamically balances your tire/wheel by using centrifugal force and deflection from rotation to automatically distribute free moving weights (durametal and synthetic dampening fluid) sealed inside the outer rim of the balancer. The wheel, tire, hub, drum/rotor assembly is continuously balanced under all driving conditions, even with rocks in the tread or mud, snow and ice stuck to the wheels.

    Hello Eskimo,
    Say I am a young guy working in the family logging business, but wanting to branch out into more of a trucking only avenue. I would love the opportunity to talk to you Eskimo regarding the management of a trucking business as that is my weak area and the maintenance is my strong area. I sure would appreciate your helping educate a young guy on where to begin on properly managing a trucking business. Thank you so much. Chris
