road force balancing?

[Boostn]

Do all the tire shops in Calgary have this capability? If not, then which ones do? I'm under the impression there's special equipment required to have this done. Does it cost more and would it be good idea to do or is regular balancing good enough? I've heard about ppl doing this recently and just wondering what it's all about.

The Roadforce machine is made by a company called Hunter. I remember a few years ago looking for shops in Lethbridge that had the machine, the website had a search. As I recall it cost me about $25 per wheel to get balanced. Not cheap but I'd do it again in a second.

The next time I buy tires I plan to go to a tire shop with the Roadforce machine and swing a deal for tires / balancing.

I believe tirecraft on edmonton trail (just north of memorial on the southbound side) has the road force balancing machine,.... my buddy works there and was showing me around the shop one day,.. I'm pretty sure they have one.
