Expert Reply:
Trailer wheel and combinations that we sell do not come balanced with weights like what you see on vehicle wheels. They do line the heavy spot of the rim up with the lighter side of the tire to somewhat balance it.
One reason people do not balance trailer tires is that the balance weights have a tendency to bounce off when the trailer is unloaded and being towed. The light load of the trailer can sometimes cause the trailer to bounce as it travels down the road which causes the weights to come off as well.
