I mounted up new RS3 tires the other day. The old ones had 9100 miles on them, and had some life left. But I'm heading on a short trip and really wanted the fun of new rubber, so and early change. As before, the rear is a real b**tch to get on the rim. But I done it! The front goes on real easy. Next is the balance. The rear tire needed fully 2 ounces to balance out. Directly opposite the tpm location. That's eight of the 7 gram weights. I even rotated the tire yellow dot to try and improve things, but that made no difference. Are you guys seeing that much weight needed? Anyone know how much the tpm dohicky weighs?
A road test came up smooth, so I'm heading out next Monday for the Northeast Kingdom.
