i have a 97 1500. i just bought mickey thompson classic 1 rims, 15x10. i mounted mickey thompson mtz radial's 33/12.50 R15. i went to balance them at my shop and the balancer wants at least 200 grams on each side. i know that can't be right so how do i balance these rims and tires? the rims have the fake bead lock look ring on the outside so i can't put a hammer on weight. if i use a stick on then you can see it and it looks really bad. i was wondering if there was a special way to balance them or if you have to use a certian type of balancer or something. some please help me. i have them all ready to go on my truck but can't until i balance them.

If the tires spin true on the balancer without wobble, then you could always break them down, rotate them 180 degrees and re-inflate and try again. I got a set of Buckshot Mudders that were all off by at least 3.5 OZ even after re-indexing them. With tires this size, it really does not have to be perfect. These tires can pick up 5 OZ of rocks and crap anyway.
