Having just had four Dunlops fitted by a well known mobile quick fitting company I have again suffered from poor quality wheel balancing.
Their vans seem to be equipped to only provide a hand spinning static balance of the wheel. i.e. wheel stops spinning with the heavy spot at the bottom - bang a weight on the inside rim at the top.
This does not factor for out of balance either side of the wheel mounting face and so is in my opinion a half balance - and i assume i have paid for a full blalance
£34 for valves and balancing says the invoice - which i assume is the same as what i would pay if gone to a fitting bay and given a dynamic balance
I'm waiting for them to send out someone to balance the wheels again but if the van doesnt provide dynamic balance facilities then thats wasting my time/money.
