Question on Kenda Tires

[jrbloise]

Does anyone know how Kenda marks their tires? Their is a red dot and a yellow dot on the front tires, and I'd like to know if anyone knows which dot represents the heavy or light side. I'm balancing the front tires and have located the heavy/light spots on just the rim without the tire on the balancer, but in order to save weights I'd have to align the proper dot on the rim to the proper dot on the tire first when mounting the tire to the rim. Once the tire is mounted to the rim, I would do the actual balancing resulting in less weights needed.

I would appreciate any help from the "brainy" people here :helpsmilie:

The yellow dot is the LIGHTEST part of the tire. The red dot is the HIGHEST part of the tire.

Install Ride-On and have no worries about balancing.
