Re: Wheel/Tire Balancing Question

So, first question: Was an alignment anywhere in that sequence of events? The "Not planted to the Roadway" seems to point to toe out.

But the 2 oz balance weight would have been there when the tire was balanced - ergo, the shimmy shouldn't have been there if the balance was correct. And removing it and rebalancing shouldn't have done anything!

That leads me to question whether the balance machine was out of calibration earlier and removing the balance weight coincided with a better calibration.
