I think it was JS who was saying there is no need to have small (10") tires balanced .... at most Dynabeads.
Does anyone have experience with this? Is it OK to get away with NOT balancing these things?
Have a rear tire coming tomorrow, so would like to know if I need to take this to a shop.

Have you ever heard the saying; Opinions are like A-holes, we all have one......
So, Im going to give my opinion even though I'm sure my opinion will be in the minority.
ABSOLUTELY YES - Your tire should be balanced..
Even a 10" should be balanced.
Keep this in mind, balancing isn't just sticking a weight on a tire... It will also check to see if the rim is bent or if the tire is out of round.

At speeds under 50 mph most won't notice much wobble from a small unbalanced tire. But, it's still best to balance them if possible. A small wobble on a new tire will increase over time and will usually cause the tire to become out of round thus shortening the life of the tire.
