wheel balance?

[m-35tom]

Well what about it? Anyone balance their wheels? How is the weight of the CTIS stuff offset on the wheel? I balanced my M-35 wheels and found that it did not matter unless they were more than 16 oz out.

You can balance them .most don't need it. If it's got a slight shimmy then break it down and turn it a quarter turn on the wheel and reset the bead. Reinstall and see if it's better or worse.

OK I understand that but whet offsets the CTIS parts?

 

[simp5782]

Nothing. It does not need anything either with or without it. They are fine either way.

I've ran them on 5 ton trucks. With the valve and without. Nothing changes.

I put 1600x20s on HEMTT rims on my M920 and I had to put about 70 oz of EQUAL tire balance material into each tire and that seemed to balance them just fine!

I always wondered if the equal would screw up the ctis.

I always wondered if the equal would screw up the ctis.

Some people have said they used airsoft pellets or ball bearings.
