Wheel still shakes after balancing??????? - Page 2

Not trying to hijack, but I just got my winter wheels on a few weeks ago and my left rear wheel had no weights on it. I notice some shaking, do you think they forgot to balance that wheel or is it possible it came out to be balanced? I don't know if that ever happens.

Do you guys think that the LM-25's will wear out quickly if they are driven on dry roads more than snowy wet icy roads. I may have asked already but its cause im in NJ and we may get just a dusting to a couple of inches all winter or we might get up to a couple of 4 inch days and a big 12 + inch storm in one winter. Do they wear out if its not freezing outside? Cause somtimes its in the 50's in the winter. Im sure it will snow at least once this year...but driving on them the rest of the winter on dry roads...is that gonna wear down the tread really fast. Cause im about to buy some tires and these are what im gonna buy.

Check your wheel bearings too. Bad offsets requiring spacers are notorious for prematurely wearing out the bearings.
