ABSTRACT:
A system is disclosed for assembling and balancing automotive wheels. Each wheel includes a wheel rim having a valve stem opening and a tire adapted to be mounted on the rim. The circumferential position and magnitude of any tire imbalance is marked on the tire. A plurality of valve stems is also provided wherein the valve stems vary in weight from each other. The tire is positioned with respect to the rim so that the valve stem opening is substantially diametrically opposed to the circumferential position of the tire imbalance and a valve stem having a weight substantially the same as the magnitude of the tire imbalance is then positioned in the valve stem opening. The tire is then inflated thus completing the assembly and balancing of the tire.
