    I had a similar problem on my 2014 RT.
    It would start up fine after sitting for a while and then at cruising speed it would start downshifting all by itself.

    Recall was done in April. It didn’t start the vibration while I throttle down until I reduced the belt tension to where it is which is 184 pounds with the rear wheel on the ground

    I just had the General Altimax RT45, 215 60 15 installed on my 2015 RT about 500 miles ago.
    Clearance isn’t an issue and both my wife and I feel the spyder is a lot smoother now.
    I haven’t noticed...
  5. I’m getting frustrated with the belt vibration - any ideas to help?

    The title sums it up. I have a 2015 RT SE6 which I bought in April and have put 5,000 miles on it so far.
    Since buying it I avoided the freeways because of the harsh belt vibration starting around...

    Nobody came up with an answer Bunson. After much investigation I’m guessing the on the ground is about 20 pounds more than in the air.

    Thanks. My ride particulars are in my signature. I do see that the dealer removed the old wheel weights and installed new ones.

    I guess I didn’t explain myself very well.
    What I’m looking for is a way to translate the belt tension with the wheel on ground to the belt tension with the rear wheel suspended.

  9. Belt tension 190 on ground = how much wheel off ground?

    No problem. Thanks for the reply. I’ll probably just reverse the nuts on mine just to be safe. I’ve pretty much decided to go with the general Altimax 215/60R15 when I replace to stock Kendra that’s...

    Thanks for the detailed response Peter. I find the last paragraph confusing when you say that the 205 55 15 is just too small because you say the 205 width is ok but the 55 is too small although the...

    I have the Showchrome rear mudflap on our 2015 RT and I am beginning to think about replacing the rear tire (Kenda).
