After a year and a half of testing the Armada product in a variety of applications
as well as wheel positions, I have found it exceeded our expectations.
We started by using the product in 255/70R225 trailer tires (50 oz per wheel).
The air pressure was maintained, driver comments were the trailer pulled better
with less vibration.
We next installed the product in more trailer tires with same results.
To determine what effect ARMADA had on wheel balance we started to install
the product in steer tires. We took a couple of ways to test the effects on
balancing.
First we would balance the tires by conventional method of spinning tire and
adding wheel weights, the truck would go into service for a few days to determine
if there was any vibration or ride issue. The truck would then come back and we
would remove the wheel weights and install Armada in each tire (11R225 &
11R2245 60 oz per tire) Ride and driver feed back was all positive with some
drivers reporting improve in ride & handling when Armada was installed.
The scope of the testing was as follows
ATV / Lawn & Garden - Maintain air pressure as well as reduce flat tires
Implement - Maintain air pressure.
Travel Trailer/ Motor Home – Reduced blow outs due to low air pressure (less
damage to units) Improved ride for trailer and motorhomes as product balanced the tires ranging from 225/75R16 up to 295/75R225.
OTR / Farm – Maintained air pressure (stopped rim leaks as well as leaks
pertaining to punctures)
Medium Truck – Balancing on trucks & trailers(less cupping in trailer application), maintained air pressure as well improved ride.
We are very please with the Armada and will continue to use it in all applications.
