Tire Benchtop Wheel Balancers

Static tire balancing machines offer the most cost effective way to balance motorcycle tires in your home shop. Using one is simple. Just let the heavy side of the wheel fall to the bottom once the tire and wheel are on the stand. When it stops rotating, place a weight at the top of the rim and rotate the tire 180 degrees. Repeat this process until the heavy side of the wheel no longer falls to the bottom, at which time the wheel is balanced. Please also notice that the more expensive tire balancing machines also include hardware for truing spoke wheels.
