Mount your tire and find the heavy spot then break the bead and move the heavy point of the tire (if you can find one) to the light part of the rim. You might find you can leave the rim only weights on permanently and only have to add a weight or two to another spot to get your perfect balance.
Excellent points Darrell - thanks. I forgot about that. I am no expert in changing tires aside from bicycle tires, which require no balancing. I will definitely do this for the Tiger's rims.
