**Help**

As I write this I'm driving a U Haul from San Antonio with my M on the trailer. Before I loaded the car I noticed my sidewall had a cut in it. So, I put on my OEM wheels. The issue.. I've got spacers front and back and those wheels aren't balanced. I'm headed to San Pedro and wanted to know if ANYONE has info where I can find a place that will balance these wheels with the spacers??? I thank you in advance! Driving this pig and writting this is a b*tch!! Haha

///Thanks again!!

Bad combo with the screen name and the thread title, everything is going to be fine.

Balance wheels with spacers??? You only balance wheels.

Ok, I misunderstood if it mattered that I have spacers when it comes to balancing. So are there any preferred places in the area that I'm headed to?

A road force balance is preferred but not necessary. PM user Dark_M3. He is in the area and may be able to point you to a place.

You can drive without balancing the wheels

it'll just be a pain (esp at higher speeds). but it's doable.

you can also remove the spacers
