[QUOTE="Movie Muscle, post: 103026, member: 2398"] Ahh NB, hadn't looked at your location. Dealerships and good quality tire shops tend to have the road force machines. You should still be able to find somebody out your way. The machine basically exerts pressure with a roller to mimic full road load on the tire and gathers data. They rotate the tire on the rim to eliminate high spots, matching it to the rims low spot and so on. Was night and day when I first did it. A set of new tires I had bought just weren't as smooth as I would have liked even though they were in balance. I had heard of road force balancing but never bothered a buddy's shop had a Hunter and said he would toss them on. Results were fantastic. This video explains it well but not fully. he starts to mention side wall changes but doesn't follow it through. However the full explanation is not really needed. A Google search will reveal more details. [MEDIA=youtube]DQxVAssnbp8[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
