Balancing wheels and tires
I just got new wheels and tires, they weren't balanced correctly so after a week I brought them back.. They reblanced and rotated now they are a little better but still vibrating but not as bad as before..
This is driving me crazy.. I heard that the Hunter 9700 Road Force balancing maching is the best.
Does any know of a place in Colorado that has this machine??
Discount Tire?? they are all over Denver??

are the wheels hub centric, do you have hub rings?
if you don't have hubcentric wheels, or at least hub rings, no amount of balancing or ride matching will help in certain situations...

Thanks.
I'll give em a call.
I imagine they will charge a lot since I did not buy them there.
But I don't care the vibration is driving me crazy!
I have hub centric rings. I have 19" with Bridgestone Pole Positions
I'll be headed there on Friday

I had my wheels and tires balanced at Discount tire with the Hunter 9700. " It cost me about $100 and they will rebalance them for as long as you have them. Not all Discount Tires have the 9700 so you will need to check first. Here is some info on the 9700 and you can check for a location near you by clicking on the "locate a 9700" at the top of the page. You will not be disappointed once you get this done. My car rides great now with no vibration at all.

Shoot,, They did not offer the $100 deal.
I paid $45 bucks to correctly rotate and balance.
The Hunter machine is great!! Little or almost no vibration..
I'll tell you with 19" rims with 45's you feel the road a ton more than with the stock set up.
