Balancing tires - good practice!

Folks, we all are running some wide slabs of rubber and Porsche is not very gentle when it comes to tire wear. So balancing and aligning is paramount for a good handling car ( including tire pressure). After 2,000 miles it was time to get my car checked out again.. You know it start off with this tiny little vibration that happens between X-speed and Y speed and disappear at about 100 miles per hour or more. :-)
So have your tire guy remove ALL leads / weights and clean that rim inside and outside and start from scratch with the balancing. It will work great!!
