Can anyone recommend a good garage to get my wheels balanced around the derby area.

Ideally a garage which uses a hunter wheel balancer or similar

thanks

+1 to this. I found them via alignmycar.co.uk or whatever that website was. You get a before and after printout as well for peace of mind smile

What does a "Hunter" do that the regular jobbie in kwik fit can't do?

The hunter machines measure tyre force and also points a laser to the exact location where the weights need to be fitted, you can also record all 4 tyre readings and it calculates the beat overall balance for the car.

It was the only way to solve my wheel issues

+1 for ETS. They were the only place that could balance the wheels on my Focus ST a few years back.
