Bought some used ones this year, first time using winter tires.

Going to put them on this weekend, just have a couple of questions.

Should I balance the tires?
Should I get an alignment after putting them on?
Both?

Im pretty sure almost everyone that mounts tires usually balances them too.
Alignment shouldnt matter much though if its already good

Mounting them myself

oh yea, thats what i need to do today.... ugh.

bead balance them, you can do it by your self, buy airsoft bbs and put an even amount (Xoz) in each tire and they will be balanced.


that's what we do for the big off road tires and it works in regular tires also, and you can do it at home and it keeps ugly wheel weights off your wheels
