My local Honda dealer does road force balancing, twice the price of a static balance.

it may also help if they mount the wheel with the little yellow circle (the light spot of the tire) in the correct spot too- right at the valve stem. Helps so the wheel people don't have to maybe use so many weights to balance.

just a tip.

Thanks Darcy, I wonder how many shops actually know to do that, makes me wonder now, great tip, I've got to check them after they get balanced again.

If you get your wheels ceramic coated and the shop doesn't know about it, the wheel weights won't stick for very long... my tip from experience lol...
