Some people say that, However Smokey Yunich said he even balanced his lawn
tractor tires.
IMHO, you can feel an unbalance at 50 mph and surely you get going that
fast. If $4000 shocks are worth some time, then making the job of any shock
less severe by balancing tires is the right thing to do.
YMMV
