on the topic of balancing your buggy...yes they are designed to be as balanced as possible...but you can never compensate for every single persons kit they run in a buggy...ie some people run Lipo...some NiMH...theres alot of extra weight right there. my .19 speed is also a proper few grams lighter than my .21...servos are lighter than others etc etc. if you are REALLY having balance issues with regards to setup and drivability because your buggy is for some reason way out of whack then sure...try anything possible...otherwise just charge it, fill it, start it and race it lol. if you wanted that balancer to check your weight bias then thats a different story...i like moving weight around especially now with the JQ buggy that is so light..almost underweight depending on your rules. you can achieve so much by adding weight in specific places on a car it is scary...just another tuning option.

on tyres, ive noticed lately that the latest in pre-mounts from the likes of Beta and even Procircuit tyres are almost perfectly balanced out of the bag..especially the beta tyres...no need to waste time balancing them..they are close to perfect almost. i guess it is still necessary if you glue your own though.
