And it is not going to really matter on 37 inch swampers.

 

I Balanced my 18" Powdercoated Z06 Rims with sticky weights on the inside of the rim on both ends.

I'd like to high speed balance them though....

 

Bullsh*t EVERYONE who has rode in my truck can vouch for that


Now, I Do have radials rather than bias. Which helps alot.

I can tell you, from before I balanced them to after the truck is a night and day difference.

 

I meant it is not going to matter if you staticly or dynamicly balance the 37 inch swampers. not if you balance them or not.

 

My mistake, yep. You're right in that sense then.

 

thats the correct way to do it. weights on both ends

 

Dynamic, ALWAYS whenever possible. Static balancing due to cosmetic issues is the hack method. Do you guys change your oil without the filter too? I bet you replace shocks one at a time rather than in pairs. Probably think an alignment consists of setting toe only.

Regular dynamic balances are becoming less and less efficient with the modern suspension and tire designs. Often anything other than a RFV balance and you get vibrations and comebacks.

Stick on wheel weights work fine when done properly. That means proper wheel prep for adhesion and absolutely no stacking.

 

A Roadforce machine is the way to go, the only issues with that IS most $7-8 an hour tire techs don't really know how to use it or care to learn, in my area anyway.

 

I had to have mine balanced the same way.

It's been years since I balanced tires... but when I did... we used hammer weights with the exception of wheels like C6.... then tape weights were then in order.

 

Agree, road force is the ****!!

I wish the company I work for would suck it up and buy us one.
