The Ballas are rivals with [[Grove Street Families]] and the [[Varrios Los Aztecas]], and have ties with the [[Los Santos Vagos]], the [[San Fierro Rifa]], and the [[Loco Syndicate]] for narcotics, and the [[Russian Mafia]] for weapons. The Ballas also collaborate with [[CRASH]]. In addition, [[Big Smoke]] defects against the GSF to lead the Ballas with his lieutenant [[Ryder]]. Unlike the GSF, the Ballas have no reservations about making money by selling drugs; the spread of crack cocaine into the Grove Street community is part of their strategy to wipe the GSF out. | ||

They control the influence of the Families by using crack cocaine to turn GSF members into hopeless addicts totally dependent on them. However, following the release of Sweet from prison and the return of [[Carl Johnson]], the Grove Street Families dominate the Ballas.

The Ballas are seen with purple bandanas, black skullcaps, knee high socks and flip-flop sandals, khaki pants and dark blue shirts. | The Ballas briefly control the streets of [[Los Santos]] alongside the Vagos after Grove Street leader [[Sweet Johnson]] is gunned down and arrested.
