Centramatic wheel balancers

Centralmatics can only do so much. The also balance the entire rolling assembly not just the tire and rim. If the centralmatics can balance up to say 16oz and the entire rolling assembly is out by 17oz static balancing the tire and rim would bring the assembly back to where the centralmatics work.

 

Just installed a set on my steer axle, watched the tech cut the weights off my rim. Spin balance not needed. We’ll see tomorrow when I roll out of here if they drive any better

 

Stupid thing to do (cut the weights off)
I always have mine balanced

 

It seemed to help, but my bounce is still there. I swapped the tires/wheels from side to side. Can’t really tell if it followed the tire/wheel. I did have cupping starting on my passenger steer. Swapped shocks today. The old ones were completely fkd. Any chance fresh shocks will remedy my issue? Next solution is new steer rims and new steer tires. Current steer tires are Goodyear LHS, and they have about 70k on them. The driver is wearing great, the passenger also other than the cupping. Hoping to get a little more than 70k out of steers they still got lots of tread
