Radial tire chatter

Floyd Staggs · 04-14-2008, 11:22 PM

I put a set of MT Street Radials on my truck and have developed tire shake on the launch in warm weather. I have increased the 60 ft times and made better reaction times but when the track warms up I get severe tire shake. I started at 15 lbs, reduced it ti 14 1/2 lbs and got my best 60 ft and best et ever. That was @ Super Chevy @ Fontana and the air was great. The next weekend it got hotter than hell, 99-100 degs air and I started to get tire shake as soon as I let off the brake. I footbrake a 4000 lb P.U. that runs 10:70-10:80 on pump gas. I do like the tires but we are approaching summer and I'm going to break something with the tire shake. What am I doing wrong?
