Does anyone take the time to balance their trailer tires? I balanced the tires on my utility trailer years ago. But never balanced my 12"coleman tires. We now have a road force tire balancer @ work & I think I want to do that to the Pod tires when it comes home. It might keep the screws & staples from coming loose... Thoughts?

I balanced our tires on the POD, looking at the weights that had to be put on it should save some tire wear and has to ride better. You can't feel any difference when you drive but if you have ever seen a car driving down the road and one wheel is bouncing like a rubber ball that could be your trailer tire at some point.
Not on topic but kind of funny was the guy that I saw yesterday north of Joplin, he was dragging this long red snake that appeared to be attached to the sewer drain pipe. Just wiggling down the road, I am sure that the red snake will still be usable if he makes sure that the side with the road rash is up. Goose
