Cannot keep tires balanced. Balanced 3 times in last 6 weeks. Also had 2 tires replaced to try and correct. I was told by a friend in dayton Ohio that he had same problem. According to Goodyear dealer this is a recurring problem on the 300M with the 17 inch wheel package. Every time I ask Chrysler dealer if they know of such problem, they say no, but Goodyear dealer says that I am not alone with this problem, and he has had many complaints, and this is just one Goodyear dealer. He says there are no problems with these tire on anything else. Only the 300M with 17 inch wheels. (dot number: Mk438mdr tiresize: P225/55R17)
