Had paid the big dollar computer balance job and still bad.
The balance job will only be as good as the operator of the equipment. A tire can come up as "balanced" on the machine, but if the weights aren't in the right spot, you'll still get a static vibration. Took a customer away from Wal-Mart for that very thing. Weights everywhere on the wheel, showed "balanced" on their machine. I put it on mine (Hunter Road Force), it showed 1.5 to 3 ounces off. Customer had me rebalnce them after Wal-Mart couldn't do it right or refund him the money. When i was done, smooth as could be.
Now, if a tire/wheel assemblt is not true round, no amount of balancing will correct it. Only correcting the out of round situation will fix the problem. Most shops do not true tires anymore, we haven't done it since about 18 years ago, as most modern tires tend not to be out of round.
