Uh huh.
Thats because todays average male has such a sensitive vagina that they can feel vibrations on the highway like never before.
So, the manufacturers were forced to come up with something that can detect the slightest tremor in their labia at 70mph so the tears can stop flowing and Walgreen's can manage to keep a supply of salve of the shelves.
Or something like that.
Just another example of dumbing down a trade because most in it can't be bothered doing it properly.
If a rim and tyre needs excessive weight, break it down and spin the tyre 180degree relative to the rim. If still no good, split the difference and move 90degree.
Blow the tyre up hard to seat the beads properly before setting road pressure.
Before you balance it spin it slow by hand and watch it carefully for runout with your eyecrometer.

Or, get a roadforce? machine and absolve yourself of all engagement in your work. FFS.

This actually gets further into it than just wheel and tire run-out.
It will measure the stiffness of the sidewall and the tread block. It will also tell you where to mount it on the wheel for optimal balance.
We see tires that have no visual runout, balance with minimal weight, yet still have a vibration.
Bigger wheels cause this *s-word.

Well if you reckon it's alright then it probably is Ed. Please excuse my tired rant.

Edit. I see on closer inspection that you still have to remind tyre techs to tidy after themselves. So that hasn't changed at least...

The technology is great if one knows how to use it to get great results.
Our lubies still stack adhesive weights and balance without removing old weights and the like.
They always have less than stellar results and normally have to balance them 2-3 times..

Needed to burn a couple of Subway coupons that expire after today, so subs it is. Three steak & cheese footlongs with damn near every topping offered and a footlong teriyaki chicken/bacon with a few additional toppings. $25 out the door...grocery time.

Wouldn't it be easier to get behind the bar at subway make your own sandwiches and eat?

I got an offer to install commercial doors. It's a good paying gig...but that's not really it...

I ain't gettin' younger..the benefits and health insurance are what I'm after.

Plus I can quit torturing this amazing figure I have.

Porn...Rikki Raxx still around?

I saw her skank ass a few weeks ago, this other broad I grew up with has a son that goes to school with "rikkis" aka Deanna Betras' kid. She told me she's not even allowed to pick her kid up in the building anymore because of the way she dresses.
