You've hit the nail on the head! I've posted this in the past before and I'll say it again: if you want a tire that's reasonably close in balance and with good uniformity, you are better off with a tire built by a true highway tire company. See the example above: Maxxis - an offroad tire company, and Goodyear (Mudrunners), a large tire company with tons of experience in high speed tire uniformity. Being a pound out of balance is horrendous though, even for an offroad tire company. Vampire EDL's aren't even that bad.
I used PJ1 Tire Balance in some badly out of balance Blackwaters; it worked good.

 

Here is the latest (Sorry for so much text) chapter in trying to get Maxxis Bighorns replacements.

Many apologies. I have no idea what I did. What I attempted to do was copy my e-mails from Maxxis and past them to the reply.

Love the tires, despise the QA. Note the date of my post; This is not news to Maxxis.

 

Just bumping this to make sure people see the problem.
will keep doing it untill the people with bad tires are satisfied.
I have talked to alot of people on the trails and there are alot of people that have this problem but have not said anything. on the otherhand I have rode with a few that ride nice.
