I must be lucky--I have 2 small shops near me who not only balance them
beautifully, they know exactly how to change tubes w/o any damage to them. I
know there are a bunch more that do it.
Wonder why you would have so much trouble? I live in the suburbs of
Pittsburgh--maybe that is why.
Plenty to choose from.

I don' t have one yet but some claim the bubble balancer is the best way to go
w/wire wheels. You might try balancing your brake drums to rid the existing
shake. Maybe that can also be done on the bubble? Also, if the wheels are not
"true" I doubt you can get a proper balance.
After a rash of ripped tubes by tire shops I bought an inexpensive manual tire
changer on ebay and now do the mounting myself.
