do your tires on rims come balanced?

Hey JL, thanks for reaching out. All of the tire/wheel combos we sell are already balanced in the manner that trailer tires are balanced. Every tire and every wheel has a high (heavy) and low (light) spot. The manufacturers offset the high spot on the tire with the low spot on the wheel to balance them. They don't really need to be balanced beyond that.
That being said, some people do prefer to have them balanced by a shop with a balancing machine. It isn't necessary, but some people choose to do this out of an abundance of caution/safety. If you have a shop near you that can balance them for cheap, then great. Or you can use balancing beads like part # CA83VR to add balance. That's typically what I recommend using if you want to add balance, but again, all our tire and wheel combos are ready for the road as they come.
Was there a specific tire size you were looking for? What kind of wheels do you want?
