Do Wheel and Tire Assemblies Come Pre-Balanced

Question:

Do wheel/tire sets come pre-balanced? If not, is that an option at additional cost? Thank you.

All of our wheel/tire combos like the Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 16" White Wheel part # AM35099 come pre-balanced to an extent. The heavy spot on the wheel is aligned with the light spot on the tire to create a balance that is sufficient for use on trailers. They are not completely balanced and will need to be taken to a reputable shop to be zeroed out should you choose but the light/heavy spot method will be more than sufficient for most trailers.
