does the road force balance, but DT charges extra for it.
Yeah when I bought my 31's from DT they tried 6 times to get it right and never did. They said they would road force balance them for extra money, but I was like that is BS because that is like charging me for mount and balance then never getting it right then charging me more to do it the right way. Eventually 4Wheel parts fixed them first try, but then I bought my new 33's from TR and they got it right the first time with minimal weights using road force balance. I wasn't aware of it, but from what I gather they need special training to be able to do it.I that must have changed. DT did roadforce free automatically when I went it.
My problem is not getting them initially balanced by DT or TR or similar, but that I need them balanced multiple times per year as the tires loose chunks.
My hunch as to why some are happy and some are not is that some have tires that are round and others out of round.I researched this for my '67 VW Beetle a couple years ago. And it seemed like about 75% were happy. And the other 25% weren't. I have no idea why. So I stuck with weights. @JMT has alot more patience than I do. I guess if you lived in a rural area. It would be great to be able to mount and balance your own tires. Without having to travel far. But I've yet to hear that this is a solution for 100% of us. Until then I think I'm gonna stick with weights.

I can’t even get weights to balance out of round tires.Beads should fix that. Out of round rims I'm not so sure. Just an assumption.
