Hey Steve, I keep reading on how people don't need to balance their Treadwrights. Since you have a couple days before the alignment /balance, go rip all the weights off and see what it feels like.

Got my treadwrights put oon last saturday and they balanced out very well. All the guys in the shop couldnt believe they were retreads. They are pretty soft, should grip really really well. Am very pleased with them.
