[QUOTE="Dan Cooper, post: 1471386, member: 98210"] [S]Once upon a time[/S] [S]Long, long ago in a galaxy far, far away[/S] I once had an FJR bare wheel that was out of balance by more than I liked, more than 40 grams. Used a grinder to remove some material inside the wheel at the heavy side to get almost perfect balance. Turned out to be a bit of a mistake as all tires mounted afterward needed some weights for balance, some more than one might imagine. Was no longer able to rotate the tire on the rim to balance out the heavy spot on the tire with the heavy spot on the rim. Be careful what you wish for! dan [/QUOTE]
