It's a good idea to balance all the four wheels on a buggy, especially you're going race it, unless you can glue your tires very well and it does not wobble much or at all.
Normally, if you can glue the tires moderately well, regardless of buggy or truggy tires (tires seat in the wheel bead when glued) it will not wobble, often, wobble was caused by the wheels which have taken a beating instead...
Excessive wobble tires will increased wear on drive-train, uprights, spindle/steering knuckles (the king pin bushing screw slots) etc...
But again, it's not a must to balance them, after all your truck wheel will be on the ground...
