    i got some new Michelin Defenders. It's been in twice now for re-balancing and it's still not right. Especially at hiway speeds it feels wobbly. OEM SR5 wheels.

    Are these wheels tricky to balance? Any suggestions, aside from trying another shop?

    Also, it looks like they used a grinding wheel to remove the adhesive from the previous weights on the wheel. It went down to bear metal.

    Is this going to cause an issue with corrosion with winter road salt?
