I used A/c o-rings to center the wheel faces, worked great IMO.
To balance, I set them out in the sun at 50psi for a few hours.
Then i let the air out and rotated the tires on the wheels while on the balancer. Basically this allowed to put the light spot on the tire where either the heavy spot Or highspot was on the rim. I meassure the runout around 1-2mm max on all the wheels, but matching them up significantly reduced the amount of weight i had to use. in one case, 16.7 oz down to 9.25. The rest were in the 4-8oz range.
All balanced to 0oz, and run great up to 75.
Total cost for the tires was $1579 and the 24 bolts were $399. Im pleased

I made an install/test/initial review video
