[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1356552, member: 3828"] What do you suppose the IQ is of the average trucker? I doubt that many are delving into the physics involved and questioning how on earth it could work. Apologies in advance to any truck drivers here for the generalization, but I think you get my point. Been doing exactly that since I started mounting my own tires. I don't mount my tires to save money, although that does happen as a matter of course. I DIY so I can do a better job than the pimpley faced kid at the LBS who would ignore the fact that it took him 8 wheel weights to get the wheel and tire in balance. None of the bare FJR wheels that I have balanced have been heavy at the valve stem, unless there is a TPMS sensor screwed onto the valve. [/QUOTE]
