If you're anywhere near Canterbury, Class Cars at Wingham have top line equipment for balancing expensive alloys, did a superb job when I replaced the alloys on my C270 - and they calim to be Porsche specialists as well as MB!

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Can anybody recommend a place to get wheels balanced? Cheers Paul

POST 2Original post

It isn't rocket science, but it does take someone who is careful. Do you have a Pro-Tyre near you? They are generally quite good. If not, are you near Gillingham? If so, Lepsons do tyre fitting, and I am sure they would be good. http://www.lepsons.com/

POST 3Original post

I use Wheels in Motion (Blackboots) as they have decent equipment for it. They made quite an improvement over a standard tyre place balance job.

POST 4Original post

It's also worth looking at STS Tyre Pros www.tyrepros.co.uk They have a number of locations across the UK.

POST 6Original post

be aware that some wheel shops use what's known as passive balance machine's which are rubbish on wheels requiring left/right placed weights.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
