Knock-on wheel balancing - Southampton
Discussion
Hi All. I fairly recently bought a 1970 Elan Plus 2 with knock on wheels. Does anyone know where I can get the wheels balanced in the Southampton area? The normal specialists I've tried don't have the right fittings to take the knock on wheels on their computerised machines. I'm either looking for somewhere with the right fittings or someone "old school" who can do on-car balancing. Any suggestions?
Interesting question - I'm a serial Elan Plus 2 owner and with my last one I just took it to the local tyre place and they had no issue mounting the wheels to their balancing machine.
One thing to consider is making sure the balance pads on the rears, if on the inside, do not foul the wishbone bolts - there is very little gap between them and the inner wheel face.
