Default Re: Tire/Wheel Balance ? Bounce ?

We see a lot of balance problems at the dealership I work for......Many of them are related to tires that were balanced on a machine that did not register the wheel concentricly.......The machine we use registers on the bolt circle rather than the center hole. ........I've balanced tires for a friend who runs an Alcohol FC that were static balanced and shook like hell before I rebalanced them using the bolt circle locator. Just for the heck of it we checked them statically before I spun them and they were ok. .....I would still check the lug nut setup to see if they are the correct ones......Other than OEM wheels ,very few aftermarket manufacturers make wheels that register on the axle center hub .........Tom.........West Coast, you are dead right about the 6-pack! LOL
