    Yes, most have no idea of the concept. At best they just follow the machines instructions blindly. I can't tell you how many guys lower the hood and look away!? GUY! Put your eyes on the damn tread and look for movement! I'm paying for the balance NOT for you to just roll the machine. Plus most places NEVER calibrate there eq. Really expensive for a half ass effort imo. 2015 Denali 3500 DRW, Michelin ltx, 4x4

    To the best of my knowledge, yes... I feel like a little kid with a big red button in front of me, I'm dying to take one of these off and see if there is any play in the wheel without lugs but I'm not willing to jeopardize my ride quality. Maybe when it's due for rotation and balance I'll investigate. I personally am not buying the fact the the hub bores are to large. I feel the most likely scenario is that the tech hangs the wheel on the studs then hits it with the impact to tighten the first lug nut, it's possible if the hub bore is to tight that it causes the assembly to get bound up and not sit flush. Maybe asking them not to use pneumatics on install would eliminate this variable? I don't know... I'm just glad they fixed it and dread the next rotation and balance! 2015 Denali 3500 DRW, Michelin ltx, 4x4

    Can this one mirror the screen on the phone? I did some research on these a few weeks ago and found one that streams the exact phone image, which would allow the display of Google maps as well as email, youtube etc... 2015 Denali 3500 DRW, Michelin ltx, 4x4

    Mine actually came with them...You will like these tires, sucks you had to fork it over yourself. They'll last 40% longer and give you superior wet weather traction, just wait for the first time someone causes you to slam on the brakes in the rain. Glad your riding smooth! Others are not so lucky to spend 1200 to see a fix... 2015 Denali 3500 DRW, Michelin ltx, 4x4

    MY VIBRATION IS GONE! All the way to the governor. I am wondering if I'll have this problem every time I need the tires balanced and/or wheels removed. I'm sure there are many reasons why these trucks have problems but I urge you to find a good tire shop. 2015 Denali 3500 DRW, Michelin ltx, 4x4

    I'm told my truck was successfully repaired! Do I believe it? No. But I do have a glimmer of hope as I sent one of my guys (who isn't as in tune with these things as I am) to pick it up and he said it's good as well as the head service mgr who I've delt with since day one and has drove it with me 4xs. So now the "explanation"... So they started where they all start. The tires. Road Force revealed some abnormalities, exact readings I'm unaware of, but adjustments were made. They drove the truck and still detected vibration with the GM vibration detector and their butts. They went to the rear tires and re balanced them on the "NEW" laser balancer and found nothing out. Remounted the wheels, drove it, was worse. The tech simply rotated the rims on the studs 180 degrees and drove it again. NO VIBRATION! What the hell? So now the theory is the hub centric wheels don't mount perfectly everytime or could be sensitive to even torque during installation. The dealer believes the wheels them selves could be the problem. Being the second set, it could be a manufacturing issue. Thoughts? I'll be to it in an hour or so to give it my full assesment. 2015 Denali 3500 DRW, Michelin ltx, 4x4

    I'm going on week 2 and the dealer hung up on me when I politely called and asked for an update! Straight hang up on me! I'm 1500 miles from home or I would have enemy down there already. Very frustrating... I still have no idea what's been looked at. 2015 Denali 3500 DRW, Michelin ltx, 4x4

    I agree with your opinion of the light spread on your fogs. I'm looking for a traffic friendly, yet effective fog option and I think you're right on track. Could you take a pic of the bulb before you install it to show how you cover the one side? Also, on my gmc there is minimal room behind the bulb and most of these bright led deals have cooling fans on them so clearance is a concern of mine. Any issues with yours??I have the trs projector and 50 watt hid kit sitting on my work bench but want to do the fogs at the same time... can't tell you how anxious I am to do what gm should have and get the lighting in this thing back on track. Thanks in advance, good looking set up you have there. 2015 Denali 3500 DRW, Michelin ltx, 4x4

    Not trying to thread hike, but curious if those leds keep a good beam pattern. On my gmc they look like they won't clear on the back side. I've been dying to see if someone has good results with them.... 2015 Denali 3500 DRW, Michelin ltx, 4x4

    Are these going on a chevy or gmc fogs? 2015 Denali 3500 DRW, Michelin ltx, 4x4
