It's possible they were a bad batch, but I've never had a set of tires wear so poorly, and like the op, I could never get them balanced.

Gentlemen, my problems are solved. Went driving at 75 and 80 with no issues at all. Smooth and quiet I feel like I’m in my grandpas Buick. I paid the price for buying used tires but I don’t really care, I still have the best OEM wheels Ford has ever made. Problem is fixed and the money is gone so why cry about it.
Thank you to everyone who chimed in and helped me!
Now I can finally get to doing more with and to the truck. First step is some amber lenses for my fog lights.

That is a bold statement (pun intended) so I had to go back and look at them. I would agree with you if it wasn't for all the crap along the edge of the rim. I like them to be more smooth.
On Dec 3 you indicated you got the wheel installed. Wow that was a long two months to get resolved. What a relief for you!

I need to do that. Too much dirt and mud from my last trip in the woods.
New shoes and some elbow grease goes a long way these puppies.
Detailed the inside and the wheels/tires this weekend. Soooo much dog hair it’s unbelievable.

Hey Friends-
Been doing some travelling and working from home so have not done much truck related lately.
I'm looking for a tuner of some type. Don't want anything custom- More so just looking for one that will help my trans shift better, help correct my speedo since I have 35's and just give me a little better performance. I know a lot of people love SCT X4 tuners. I also love the edge insight and the visuals it gives you while being able to monitor all temps etc.
Wondering what you guys have done or heard of.

SVC might be able to help you out. They did a bunch of tuning for the Raptor. I have no idea what they offer for the EB, but they're only about an hour north of us and may be worth a shot.

Never, never, never go with a "canned tune." Always go the custom route. They don't cost much more and every single thing about a custom tune is better.
You can correct your speedo using Forscan.
I used an nGauge on my truck, unfortunately they are no longer being made.
I used Brew City Boost for my tuning. They are a great shop with an exemplary reputation and excellent customer service.
What ever you do, don't use SSI.

Took a fun little trip to the Otay Mountains by the border and found some cool stuff. What started as five F150s turned into 50 vehicles of all types. Far too many vehicles for the trail we were on but it was nice being able to meet some new people, explore something new and get my truck dirty.
There is a viewpoint on the trail and a little hike takes you to some awesome and creepy WWII bunkers and look out spots. This is the only appropriate pic I got that doesn’t have bad things graffiti all over. There was one down the trail more that had about 8 rooms and was huge. Crazy to think some 18 year old in the 40’s was stationed there looking out for us. I love the history the military has in San Diego.
I left around 130 for some things I had to do but shortly after I left the group found a huge mud pit and everyone got dirty. Kinda bummed I missed out but also not bummed with the 3+ hours everyone had to put in cleaning their trucks.
