Discovered this afternoon that I have a serious corrosion problem with
my aluminum rims on the trailer.
Here's a question that will raise some controversy ....
If your trailer has leaf springs .... why did you balance the trailer
tires?
Think about it.
The same reason you balance the tires on your car.... the two subjects
are virtually unrelated. Out of balance is out of balance....
Not necessarily.
With the dynamic dampning effect of the leaf springs and dual
independant suspension, any out of balance condition would be
eliminated. As long as they are round and track properly, balancing
wouldn't be needed.
Now that I think about it, the only reason you would balance a tire on
a car with rear leaf springs would be due to tire rotation - not
because the rear tires needed it.
