If you are balancing the rotor, then moving the tire to the rear, how is it 
still in balance?

Doesn't the two cones approximate the mounting of the wheel on the hub?

Personally, I will take the computerized method over a rough balancing by 
hitting it with a hammer and trying not to get it to rotate.

But then, to each his (or her) own.  If you are satisfied, then that is all 
that matters.
