I just bought a 2008 Jk Unlimited. I love it. It got 4 inch lift with 35 inch Nitto Trail Grapplers. They were fairly quiet. Today I got the front wheels aligned because it was pulling to the left and they also resurfaced the rotors.

Now the tires are a lot noisier. Does this make any sense?

 

Yes, very common. How long did you go before balancing them? You may want to go to shorter rotation intervals. I try and do mine every 3 or 4k miles. The trail grappers, like any other mud terrain, will get noisier as they wear down.

 

Thanks Ryan. I just bought it from previous owners month ago. I'm not sure when he balanced them last. Would that help with the noise?

Thanks

 

Yes they will quiet down some, but it will take some time. Also, make sure you are running the right amount of air pressure, as tire wear will affect noise as well.
