after you paint/powedercoat your rims, do you worry when you take it in to get your tires rotated and balanced?

I take my jeep into hibdon's tires plus, and they balance and rotate whenever I want for the life of the tires for ~$12 a tire. Well... they have jacked up my rims with their balancing removal tool, and it makes me never want to get new rims ever!!

Just have them tape weight them if you're worried about it

Yeah they "tape weighted" them, just double sided tape with small squares of lead. On the tire rotation, I'll be taking care of that.

Hey, don't look at ThunderbirdJunkie :shock:

All 22 of his factory lugnuts still retain their nice little chrome caps 8) Same impact has taken them off and put them on for years!
