So welcome... : )..
I balance everything..... will say the bigger the tire the larger the difference in driving feel... However.. I have noticed a increase in bearing life under normal conditions since I started this... I used to get sloppy wheel bearings ( in and out play. bearing still spun freely.) about every 2 months. in 1/8.. and truggy... now Im at 3 months and bearings are still tight.. and thats even with a big 3 day weekend race thrown in there!!

I used to balance only what was visible... the largest difference in your driving that you will notice will be adjustments made in the air seem like you are more in control... not as abrupt...
