Already balaced?
 
so I had to buy new rear tires the other day...they get here either today or monday..(hopefully) now, the rear wheels/tires are already balanced..so when I get the new tires (same ****ty sumitomos) when they mount them, do they still have to balance them?

Yes. They have to take the weights off to get the new tires on.

how long did your old ones last jon? :beerchug:

Badfish 04-15-2006 03:56 PM

lmao....didnt last long.... they're actually so bald, that if I tried tyo make a burnout vid, theyd probably pop...actually the sude tread isnt past the wear line...but the middle is hella bald

and Dan....they used a different kind weight than normal...these were on the inside of the rim, behind the spokes

I've never gotten my rear tires balanced.:confused:..

You really should get them balanced, b/c all tires aren't balanced the same from the factory. And as for the wear in the middle, I'd lower the air pressure in them until it wears right. Anytime I get tires put on, I have them use the sticky weights that go on the inside of the rim. That way the weights don't show and they don't mar the rim.
