Tire balance
Ok so I had a say of 33x12.50r17(milestar patagonia tires) put on a set of helo rims today when I went I pick them up they said they coulsnt and didnt balance them because they would have needed 15oz of weight to get them balances what should I do. I know they did align the yellow or red dots with valve stem but that shouldn't throw them off that much. Any help

Have the tire shop rotate the tire 180* on the wheel and see what happens. Another option- road force balance. If they still come up out of whack then you need to contact Milestar or your wheel manufacturer to figure out who is at fault here.

If they did the road force then you need to take the tires back to whoever sold them to you and have the seller send them to Milestar who can send you out another set- again- barring the wheels being the cause of the vibration.

I bought them offline I am not sure if the place tried moveing tire on rim to see if that helped or if they just didnt care it seens odd that all 4 would be an issue

That is my next step I woild think they could have rotated the tires and tried again as they put tpms on them amd never found the light spot so that could make it an issue. Or is it just me thinking to much

Seems like a lot of people have been talking about that tire over the last 12-18 months. I've not noticed anyone mention terrible balance issues like you're noting.
