Need help..ASAP!
So I am finally getting my wheels put on my car and my coils put on tomorrow and I put the wheels and tires in my truck, I take them to a friends shop to have the tires mounted up and balanced. The fronts go smoothly checking out at a 26 on the machine, then the rears come along and it says the tire is bad?! BOTH REARS!! I bought them brand new from Discount Tire Direct, Falken 452's. He said the machine said "they had to much HOP".....?!?!? Has anyone ever heard of this.....? Then he tried it several times again and it was different reading everytime....I said the machine was faulty, and he said it was a TOP OF THE LINE....I really dont know what to think......anyone have any experiance with this kind of problem...Tire has to many hops..??

Try rotating the tire 180 degrees around the wheel. Too much hop (rotational mass imbalance) often means the tire-wheel setup has a combined heavy spot (the weight imbalances of the tire and wheel line up instead of canceling each other out). Google it.
