when do you balance your tires?

I made 6k miles on my new wheels and I guess it is time to balance them.

 

The rims usually need to be balanced everytime you get a new pair of tires

 

I have been told that one should balance tires every 6k miles. On our cars we can not rotate them in a regular way... so basically we remove the tires/rims and remoun them => but this will occur about every 15k miles (once you see that the inside of the tire is worn out).

So I guess we should just balnce the tires without rotating them... if there is no necessity for rotation yet.

 

"I have been told that one should balance tires every 6k miles." By who?

 

By the tire guys

 

As long as you aren't feeling any kind of vibrations I would skip the balancing for awhile. It is more of a ploy to get money out of people doing rotations when they toss on the balancing fees.
