I took my fronts to a car shop to balance them, when I installed them they didn't run absolutely smooth and the weights were all on the rim centerline. Maybe someone with more balance experience can chip in, but doesn't a dynamic balance have the weights distributed to the inside and outside of the rim to dynamically balance out the wobble? Anyway, I static balanced them after, came up with less weights and they ran smoother. If your weights are on centerline, are they really dynamically balanced?
I believe Can Am did simple static balance as oem, seeing the weights along the rims centerline.
The wider the rim, the more critical dynamic balancing becomes to prevent wobble or precession.
A few miles after getting our 14 RTS, it was obvious the front wheels were not balanced correctly. Upon checking them, the left was more than 1 ounce out of balance. Forgot how much, but it was better for the right wheel assembly.
Having the equipment, I dynamically balanced the two fronts, with weight over each rim flange.
Centramatics, actually concept is valid, however, being a single plane of balancing medium, they will work best on tall narrow type rotating things. As the rotating object widens, it becomes more critical to dynamically balance each edge.
Realize though, the rear wheel is supported at each end rigidly, so precession is far less of an issue. Front wheels, secured the the hub, and able to wobble or precess through the ball joint pivots could be a concern. The Spyder front wheels having a tall aspect ratio compared to width, seem to get acceptable reports about the Centramatics.
My opinion would be to properly dynamic balance the front wheel assemblies, then allow the Centramatics to fine tune any minor vertical imbalance as they roll.
