Arkansas, huh?
1973-74 I was assistant administrator of Arkansas Children's Hospital in =
Little Rock. Hillary was on the Board of Directors. I think she is =
great (who, me? Start a political argument? In the lbc forum? =
Naaaahhh!).
Anyway, sure, wire wheels can be balanced on a computerized balance =
machine. Procedure is real simple. Every unit has an adapter that puts =
a cone on both the front and rear of the wheel. This allows the wheel =
to spin free and as long as the wheel is true, you balance it like any =
other wheel/tire combination. Now, here is the real secret. If the =
wheel is out of true, rather than screwing around with it, balance it =
anyway and put it on the rear of the car where it will probably not be =
noticeable. If it is really bad, it has to be trued by hand and most =
tire shops don't have the time to do this. =20
Well, I went and did it... I gave away a trade secret.... bet I get =
pounced on good for that one.
