How much weight per tire?

What do you guys run? I have one full set going around my wheel, but now I am thinking about running a second set. I can't seem to get the front end down at all. It wants to flop over itself all day. Any other poiners?

Thanks

It will all depend on the rest of the wt of the rig. Im running Aluminum rims up front, there 10 1/2oz. I added 6oz (2 strips) to each front wheel. Over 1lb in each front. The rear beadlocks are Delrin and i added 3oz. Perfect break over and the thing is super well balanced. Then again everything has to be bullet proof for this. Steel driveshafts, HD gears, HD lockers, Alum hexes, steel cvds etc etc. It will also depend on your driving style, if you know how to utalize all the extra wt. Good Luck. "thumbsup"
