[QUOTE="goggomobil, post: 176303, member: 4070"] Wheel balancing HI there, It seems that nowadays, whenever I go to get my wheels balanced the tyre shop says that because its a BMW and very "sensitive" the tyres must be balanced off the car and then on the car as well ("finish balancing" I think it's called in Europe). From experience, I know that with everything in good condition (suspension bushes, wheels etc) balancing with the wheels off the car can be perfect (if balancing done properly) but I always have a tough time with the tyre shop as they inisist on the on-car balance being done. It's not the extra cost of the on-car balance, sometimes the amount of weights added during the finish balancing just shows that the balancing wasn't done properly in the first place. Anyone know tyreshop in PJ area that can do a good enough job with wheels off the car without having to do the on-car balance?? Cheers goggo [/QUOTE]
