Re: Use spare or buy new tires?
The fact you rotate, suggests it is the fault of the one tire, not the
shock. The tire can toss a weight or a rock can knock one off so it
goes into an harmonic wobble that will make the flat spots.
This usually shows up as a small vibration as you pass through 50-55 mph
or so. If you have really good shocks, they can cover it up and make it
a light vibration.

Re: Use spare or buy new tires?
Went out and bought 3 more tires... getting them mounted on Friday.
Hopefully it was just a weight that I threw and i wont have this happen
again, i examined the other tires and sure enough it is only this one..
not even the ones that were on the front last are like this...
Thank you all for the help!
