Good point Jason. I hadn=E2=80=99t considered that. I=E2=80=99m trying =
to use tape weights and they would only be about 2 to 2-1/2 inches apart =
on the inside of the wheel.

Thanks for the input.

Tim,
I've found the same with my balancer (with steel and alloy =
wheels, I've not tried wires). Narrow wheels (4.5-5.5") balance much =
easier with a single plane balance. I assume it's because the two =
planes are not distanced apart enough.
