Default Just mounted & static balanced my 30th tire in about five years - saving over $400

Avoid static balancing at all cost.


That¢s overstate, its better than nothing.


Hi Rod and Steve,

We go way back, mostly on the Apple newsgroups, where you know I speak
valid verifiable facts and that I don't make **** up and that I'm allergic
to bull**** from people who make claims out of their ignorant asses.

You both are well aware that, never once, in thousands of posts, have my
facts ever been materially wrong(1) since I simply don't make **** up.



Fact Check. You are starting to sound like Trump

If I said I did it, then I did it, and if I said it worked, then it worked.

In _my_ experience, with 30 tires, a good static balance appears to work
rather well by the measurement of lack of perceptible vibration at speed.

However, given the new information kindly supplied by Trader about the
Costco $22 triple check on balance, I'm going to take the next set of
wheels to Costco to ask them if they can triple-check my work.

Only then will we have the facts of how different the results are in the
specify set of tires tested.
