my question is does it really matter which one i get. i was looking on ebay and see some integy and cobra and rd logistics one at decent prices but they look cheesey compared to the hudys and that automatic ofna one.
will it really make a differnece to me? i wont be truing a whole ton of tires, but i want to not have to depend on someone having a truer at the track and making time to true my tires.
so what do you guys think, can i get away with a cheesy used one off ebay?
here is what my take is:
the integy one works great on 1/12th tire, but tends to bog a little when cutting 1/10 tires.
the ofna works great, but the guage for tire diameter is off and not very accurate.
the hudy is the hudy. it is acurate, you can rely on the guage on the cutting head one you zero it and it work and works.1/12, 1/10, 1/8 tires. it will cut them all. But they are expensive.
