Review on ๐Ÿ”ง ATPEAM Portable Bubble Wheel Balancer for Car & Light Truck Wheel Repair - Heavy Duty Hubs Tire Balancer with Bubble Level Rim for Efficient Wheel Balancing by Eric Jenkins

Revainrating 3 out of 5

High friction at the pivot point of the compensating sleeve prevents smoothness.

In fact, these cheap static balancers can't work very well or stably without some modification and adjustment. The "hardened" male pivot and female pivot are too soft, and if you don't perfectly align the balance hub in the center of the seat, the axle shaft will rub slightly on the balance hub, affecting accuracy. The good news is that they are relatively cheap and there is a lot of information on the internet about different ways to improve a wheel balancer's accuracy if you are a handyman. Since you're considering balancing your own wheels, you probably do. I saved mine, modified it and now with mr. Gravity, it works really great.

Pros
  • Purpose: Hub balancer provides smooth and safe operation through precision machining. It's ideal for quick and easy wheel balancing on most cars and light trucks.
