Location: Ogden, Ut | I was told (with regard to balancing) it applies to all tires, but particularly bias ply - which a good number of trailer tires still are. The unbalanced tires create a vibration that helps cause some of the tread separation experienced by many. It's just what I have heard from some tire shop guys - maybe they're just trying to sell the balancing, I don't know. But I agree w/ Pepper, for the extra few bucks, what can it hurt? At the very least, you may get more even tread wear. Gotta also agree w/ the proper inflation and watching your load range.
