[QUOTE="meosborn, post: 1461402, member: 19"] Ha! When do tire threads ever die? Marc Parnes balancer! Learning to mount and balance my own tires has saved me a ton. And the last time I had a shop mount and balance new tires they didn't even try brushing the dirt off the wheel. Theoretically it didn't really affect the balance but I still stick with the theory that if they are lazy about things I can see what else are they skipping or doing poorly. The first tire change on my FJR I just rode it in because the dealer was 50 miles from where I lived. I got it home and noticed that the able pinch bolt didn't appear to be in all the way. It wasn't. I was able to turn it with the tip of my finger. Also the last time I rode in for a tire change. And never had them perform any work again. [/QUOTE]
