half on theouterrim flange (Fig. 3, Fig. 4). Off-ve-
hicle balancing is necessary.
Wheel balancing can be accomplished with either
on or off vehicle equipment. When using on-vehicle
balancing equipment, follow these precautions:
²Limited-slip rear axle differential, remove the op-
posite wheel/tire
²Before balancing the wheels/tires on a vehicle
equipped with a transfer case, disconnect the drive
shafts
MATCH MOUNTING
Wheels and tires are match mounted at the factory.
This means that the high spot of the tire is matchedto the low spot on the wheel rim. This technique is
used to reduce run-out in the wheel/tire assembly.
The high spot on the tire is marked with a paint
mark or a bright colored adhesive label on the out-
board sidewall. The low spot on the rim is at the
valve stem location on the wheel rim.
Before dismounting a tire from its wheel, a refer-
ence mark should be placed on the tire at the valve
stem location. This reference will ensure that it is re-
mounted in the original position on the wheel.
(1) Measure the total indicator runout on the cen-
ter of the tire tread rib. Record the indicator reading.
