result in serious injury and severe Balancer damage.
Wheels and tires MUST be clean and free of all mud, grit or other debris as they will cause an inaccurate balance reading.
All tire pressures MUST be set to specific vehicle or tire manufactures specifications or inaccurate balance readings will result.
