Stored tires for two winters when I just had them mounted back on my rims and they wont balance took them two different garages both said the same thing the tires are out of round? I stored them upright in my barn and my winter tires balance fine on my american racing rims. the tuck shakes really bad apperantly my BF Goodrench longtrails were not meant for a very long trail!

best tires I've bought so far. They do sing on the road but with the wind noise from the Jeeps soft top you don't really notice. The tires clean out very well when in mud. I haven't had any problems in the snow or rain that we have gotten over the last year.

Very good tire!! came with my Toyota Tacoma when i bout it and they were already starting to wear but i have put an extra 3,000 miles on them and they perform great! On road they are quiet and handle wet and snowy roads very well and are very tough

Gets me there and back. It's one tough pig, I've beat on mine over some nasty rocks and I'm surprised I havn't broken my shafts but the detroit is still happy. It throws out some occasional noise but hell, I like that!

Overall I'm happy with this locker. I did reading ahead of buying this and knew what I was getting. Although plenty of people use a detroit locker in a daily driver, I recommend against it especialy if you are living in an area that gets snow.

I've had the Softlocker for about a year so far in my daily driver which sees about once a month f offroad. Been very happy with it in all aspects. Prior to installing it in my daily driver I was a little concerned about how it was going to behave on pavement. I had a detroit tru-trac prior to this and wasn't sure how going to a full Detroit Locker was going to be but I was surprised that there wasn't that much of a difference. Its a great locker option for the price with few worries. Happy with the handling on the road.

Installed one of the Detroit Softlocker in my CJ a few years ago. Previously I had 2 Jeeps with the earlier style Detroit. I've also had An EZ DEtroit Locker. With the current Softlocker I'm happy to say that it has performed incredibly well especially when I compare it to the previous generation Detroit. I get the kind of traction I'd expect from a locker but the Softlocker is so much better behaved. I get next to no banging or clunking like the older style and almost no detectable backlash even with my manual transmission. On the road behaves well enough that I can relax a bit. I only feel it move me around when it's aired down like when I'm heading from trailhead to another trailhead. When I air up and crank the shocks up a few notches (adjustable Rancho 5000's), it great on the road. If I were to consider a locker for a daily driver, I'd consider this one or maybe an OX. But as far as automatic lockers are concerned, this one is the cat's ass.
