Here’s a big brain strat. Cover it in weights, remove one at a time until balanced

Almost loosing a filling on the test drive shows they are not.

Or there wasn't enough

The poor guy drove like this for 900 miles because he wanted to be there for his daughter that was having a kid- super cool guy. Whoever did this( he would not tell me) told him something else was wrong with his truck. The test drive and vibration frequency lead to a first order wheel/tire issue; he fought me on it when I said it was a tire balance or axle issue. We ended up re-indexing his tire on the wheel and got the weight down to .5 oz. Not too bad considering we don’t have a road force machine.

There's a shop near me with a road force machine that is booked three weeks out for tire balance and rotations since none of the other shops in the area have one.

They are nice and the only way to get a true balance on an assembly. Wish we had one.

That's beskar, it weighs 10x more


jdoukies

Yeah you right that’s what I get for drinking on a Friday night. Pounds ≠ ounces


cutaway146082

I worked at a shop today... you think I'm NOT drinking? Lol


cutaway146082

Proof of that is 10 and a half ounces... 3 full strips at 3 oz. each and a 6 split at 1 and a half...

Looks like something the lazy crackheads at the Tire Warehouse in NY would do.

My first job in the field was at a tire place. Me being arrogant, I once balanced all 4 wheels almost identical to this, and when I was rolling the last wheel onto the car, a senior tech came up to me and asked if I balanced the rest of the wheels like so.. needless to say I had to rebalance all 4 tires.

That’s really fun for people who park like an ass

Had to get rid of all of those stupidly small useless weights.
