<br><font size=3>>I was always under the impression that new tires had
a stamp that indicated either the heavy spot or the light spot - it was
meant to be mounted next to the valve stem</font>
<br>
<br>
<br><font size=3>Yes, there is a yellow dot on the tire that is supposed
to go with the stem.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>So, here is what I did. I took the 4 tires and went
to a buddy mechanic of mine. He balanced all 4 tires on his $12 Snap
on machine with a bunch of upgrades.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>I then took the tires home and put them on my machine.
I ran them all in different modes and found that I need to use the
'steel' wheel setting, and it will be right on. (even though these are
Al rims.)</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>So the next set of tires I'll try this out on.</font>
