Does the Loadstar ST185/80D13 Bias Trailer Tire w/13" White Modular Wheel Come Balanced

Question:

I am planning on getting these tires for my rockwood popup camper. I was curious if tires for such need to be balanced also? Thanks,

The tire and wheel combos we carry are not machined balanced. You can have the tire and wheel combos balanced at a local tire shop if you wanted to.

What our tire manufacturers will do is line up the light spot on the tire with the heavy spot on the wheel. This is a type of balancing but not like how car tires are balanced (with weights on a balancing machine).
