You don't balance them when installing yourself?


Of course I do.
I balance them *statically*.
If you want, I'll snap a picture of my mounting and balance tools.

I use the stickon weights from HF.
I bought quarter ounce zinc weights (California has a thing about lead).
But I found 1/2 ounce is fine so next time I'll buy 1/2 ounce instead.

There is no vibration.
At any speed.
Yes I fully know EVERYONE swears you must dynamically balance.
I know that.

But, guess what?
My wheels don't vibrate.
At any speed.

So what does that tell you?


IDK, ask the suspension.
