Balancing Question:

Here's a dumb question from a newbie: do you or more like how do you, balance a set of 14.00R20's? Or is it not a big concern due to the weight of the MV and the speeds that it travels? Thank you for your help, trying to figure this out as I go without getting into a dangerous situation.

More often then not, you have to use a dynamic balancer. IE Ball bearings, golf balls. They find the low spots in the tire and tend to settle there when up to speed. I believe the ratio is 1oz of balancer for every 13lbs of tire.
