Great video...I learned something new today. Static vs dynamic balance ...wow!

Video starts at 0:53

Even "right out of the box" I'd always wipe down a surface with a solvent like lacquer thinner or even (safer) isopropyl alcohol to ensure the weights have the best stick possible.

You may not need to clean it with a brush. But, you do need to clean it with alcohol for adhesion to glue better ..

Great video of how to balance tires improperly.

Why do you say this? Because he put the weights on in multiple different sets/additions or something else I'm missing?

50+ years ago I had a retread 14" tire on a bubble balance machine, it would have taken 2 pounds of weight on one side to get it into static balance! One could look at it and see it was way out of round. We turned the tire in for warranty.

can you mount a 37x12.5x20 on a ranger DST 2420, or do need a special balancer for larger tires?

If the numbers are too high you can dismount the tire and move it 180 degrees from where it was. BTW Static is fine but not having a cover thor that machine is kinda dangerous!

In my experience anything 33” or larger should be balanced in static mode. I always hear people saying “you should really Road Force balance it” but the majority of those people are clueless on how tire balancing works. Road Force machines can’t properly match large (33”+) tires just because the machine doesn’t have that capability in that mode. It doesn’t matter if you have a 4th generation or even a newer 5th generation Road Force machine, either. The other thing people don’t realize when they complain about having a tire static balanced vs dynamically is that a large tire that has been static balanced will probably never go faster than 90 mph which most M/T’s are rated for 100mph. Drag racers and road racers alike use static balancing for high speed driving. IF you choose to balance your large tires dynamically then it would be best practice to balance your tires every 20,000 miles.

I just balanced a set of 15”x10” used Jeep wheels with 35’s for a friend. On Dynamic it was asking for 26oz on the outside and 10oz on the inside directly opposite from the outside weight. It repeated on a second balancer. Static was 6oz on the centerline. No way I’m putting 2lb+ of weight on a wheel.

May be balanced, but looks a little out of round.

100%. You can balance an egg - think about it’s shape. But, it won’t roll down the road smoothly. You need to match mount the high/low spot of the tire and rim. That did not happen here. The “hop” is noticeable as he runs the machine. That assembly will not run smoothly down a smooth road…

that tire IS out of round

Quick question, would a static balance work good as a dinámic balance?

No! Dynamic balancing improves lateral balance in addition to vertical (bouncing) balance. This reduces the chance of death wobble (but does not eliminate the chance of death wobble).

What rims are those??

I think you need a roadforce balancer. You clearly have a low spot with that much weight needed. Either the rim or tire. Be that as it may, the RF machine would tell you where and u can spin the rim/tire to match those spots and reduce all that weight you put on the outside plane. Even with the size of that tire/wheel assembly, that’s a lot of weight….

That tire is BAD ... I can see its lumpy as it spins.

😂 this guy is clueless 😂 omg
