Well, I pulled my '79 out again and dusted it off only to find I had ply separation on two tires. No problem as I had three new ones ready to go on after I repainted my wheels. I balnaced them out once before using my buddy's machine but can't quite get two of them to "remain true". Every time you take the wheel loose and put it back on the machine it'll read different. I tried "coning" at the back and front of the rim. The front has more consistant results. That's how I balanced them out the first time. The smallest cone barely catches the front of the rim hole. I'm starting to suspect these rims are lugcentric only and not hubcentric at all.
I'm considering having an adapter made w/ studs so I can bolt them on the balancer and be done w/ this headache, however; I don't know if my buddy will still have the machine as he is selling his shop.
Any tricks to balancing these wheels?
Thanks, BIlly
