    Tracker Heritage no wheel weights

    You will notice no wheel weights the Heritage trailer has balance beads inside the tire. This seems to be the way the industry is going I know Ranger has balance beads on all the 2018 trailers.

    Would balance beads sound like grains of sand in a tire? When I took my factory tires off I bough that maybe casting sand had fallen into the tire. I though that it might be a balanacing product but never looked that up.

    No weights on my Shorelandr with the factory Marathons and no weights with the new Endurance tires. Balancing trailer tires is not necessary.

    I’ve always had my trailer tires balanced when buying tires.

    I had a vibration problem that was only cured with Road Force balancing.

    I try to drive as if my 16 year old Grandson is following me

    My Lund didn't have weights when I bought it. Thought nothing of it. Started getting pissed at Lund for poor quality cause I was constantly having to tighten screws. Fast forward 3 years when the time came to replace the tires. Tire shop balanced the new ones. Guess what? No more loose screws.

    I think its just as important as air in the tire.
