I swear Snap On will own my soul soon

This one is pretty top of the line as far as I can tell. Never played with one before. It will tire to rim match for better balance. It will hid sticky weights behind the spokes. I have one of my wheels on there now but I haven't ordered any wheel weights yet so I am just playing more then anything. My tires do need balancing though so I will be ordering some weights and knocking that out tomorrow or Friday.

Never used a snap on tire balancer, but we got a brand new hunter machine that has a red dot laser designator for weights that is pretty tits, regardless thats a nice machine.

They have some really slick tire balancers these days. Carquest sent some guy to show me the latest and greatest. It used lazers to read the tread, look for damage, show the wear of the tread or sidewall, balance it and everything. If I was a tire store I would need one. But I am a repair shop that also does tires so I don't quite need all that. The volume matters.

I meant to use it today on my X5 but I was slammed all day and tomorrow looks just as good.

ETA: I did spin one of my wheels on it and it showed it being out of balance, which I knew already I can feel it at certain speeds. The sad part of that is these tires were put on right before I bought it and have less then 4k miles on them. So the guy who did the job must be blind in one eye and not have his other one. Easy to use, but what tire balancer isn't?

Should I bring the truck and new tires by tomorrow so you can test it out?

When is the tire machine coming in?

When is the tire machine coming in?

Should be here by the end of next week.

Soon? Your soul looks overleveraged already ...

Oof, can't imagine they are giving those away.

Not so much, though I did get some tools off the truck for "free" with the purchase.
