DIY tyre changing and balancing
There is the cost and the pain getting to and from a place to change tyres so I was thinking of buying myself a wheel changer and tyre balancer. Now I can't run to a proper pneumatic jobbie, however I've seen a reasonable (cheap) tyre changer and a separate balancer. However cheap might mean crap, so I thought I'd ask if anyone had any experience of these devices? The ones I were looking at are
So, a waste of money? Or useful? It strikes me that these are a decent size and could come to race meetings too? However I've never seen anyone else with one, does that mean something? Interesting thread from the past: Is it really worth balancing wheels on a heavy racing saloon?. Doesn't help here, but found it in my searches. |
