Wheel balancing

Hi everyone!
If anybody knows of a top garage in Cornwall with state of the art equipment so i can get my front two wheels balanced spot on i would be grateful.Just had two new tyres on the freetrack and had em balanced twice but i'm still getting vibration through the steering wheel at about 60/70 mph.Want to try a different place because i think the callibration is out on the machine that's done mine...

Thanks :)

Simon

Give them a call and check they have the all singing all dancing model, as there are lower spec hunter machines.

The top spec one is very impressive in action (all the info is on the website) but it checks for wheels being out or round, tyres being out of round and all sorts of other stuff in making its decision on where to put the weights.

I've a 1.9 stylance. Not had it long enough to change tyres but so far its smooth at any speed, and I'm pretty sensitive to wheel balance myself. I've sold a car in the past because I couldn't cure wheel balance and couldn't live with it!

I'd also recommend tracking down one of their alignment machines for anyone with tracking issues, rather than paying kwik fit or a dealer to use their inferior kit. Again, I've seen it in action and its pretty impressive.
