Are Trailer Tire/Wheel Combos Balanced From Factory
Question:
these are mounted but are they balanced?

Expert Reply:
When the tires are mounted to the wheel at the factory, the high (heavy) spot on the wheel is matched to the low (light) spot on the tire, which leaves the wheel and tire balanced to a certain degree. You can have the wheel/tire balanced if you wish, but since trailers don't have steering axles, having perfectly balanced tires is nowhere near as important as it would be on a passenger vehicle.
