The Westlake ST205/75R15 Radial Tire w 15" Lynx Aluminum Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - LR D - Silver # LHAW320 does not come balanced as, typically, trailer tires don't need to be balanced like standard passenger vehicle tires. Doing so may not provide any benefit, but this is certainly something you could have done at a local tire shop if desired. However, the tire manufacturers we currently carry will match up the light spot on the tire with the heavy spot on the wheel, which is a type of balancing, but not like how car tires are balanced with weights on a balancing machine.
With all that being said, we do have a new product on our site that you may be interested in. The Counteract Tire Balancing Beads for Tandem Axle Trailers - 4 Tires # CA93VR continuously and automatically readjust the balance of your trailer tires. This comes with everything you need to get them inside the tires and they are even American made. This means you will not need to go to a local shop to get them balanced if you choose to get it done.
