You said the new bighorns have a yellow dot?
On one of the tires I noticed a yellow circle with a number in it, like 17 or 19.. Front tire, on the white letter side
Is this what you spoke of in an earlier thread?
Would that be in the white letter side or black side?

Thanks, I ran the tires down to 4 back and 4.5 front improved but not the ride I'd hoped for

On the NEW Big Horns there is a small yellow circle, white letter side. Its is to be lined up with the valve steim. Most After-Market companies should have been informed and informed you? I dont know for sure? because I dont work for Maxxis this is just what Ive been told and the NEW set I just got in, have the yellow mounting circles. If your having a problem I would contact where ever you bought them from? I think you said something about northatv? They should be able to take care of any problems you maybe having? The problem with some of the bad tires was wheel wobble and thats why with the new batch they have the yellow monuting circles. Not all of the old Big Horns had problems those. Also Ive seen some of the cheaper tire mounting companys bend rims so you have a few things to take into consideration? If your not having any of these problems? I would play with the tire pressure a little and see if even lower will work for you? Sometimes Ive ridden 4 in the front and 3.5 in the rear. Good Luck And if you think I can help in any other way, I'll try? ~coop

Appreciated.

All four tires have the exact same lot number, I mean exact, the two rear sub lots matched, two front sublots matched all four had same primary lot number....
They had been cleaned wonder if the circle got whacked. I nearly didnt notice the one when I was washing my tires as it quickly started to fade
Only one had the yellow circle...hmm. I'll need to run on pavement to see if they wobble. Too hard to tell over hard pack turf at 45mph LOL
I'll play with tire pressure.

Thanks for input.

Put up a photo on my photo page of what the yellow circles look like on my new Big Horns.
You can see there not in the same place but are on the white letter side. ~coop

Thanks, odd....one of the four had a dot-
I'll call monday and ask whats up
I'll call the dealer but is there a number of the manufacture to talk with first so I'm armed with something prior to talking to the distributor?
