I just called centramatic wheel balancers....they finally have the 8 lug design available, but the 5 and 6 lug aren't going to be available till the begining of the year.

they have been previously available...but at the begining of this year they stopped production of the 5, 6, and 8 lug designs to develop a better design.

Does anyone know an approx. price tag on these babies? I remember seeing them on Roger Brown's and Frankentaco's sites, but forget the price on them.

I emailed them a few weeks ago about a set of balancers for my Jeep. The price for a set is 200$ & they would be available at the end of the year(5 lug version). As often as I get my tires rebalanced they should pay for themselves in a year. Now what I'm wonderin is will they have enough weight in them to balance a big set of bias ply TSLs. I asked them this but they didn't answer that part.

OUCH!! Not worth $200 to me since mine will be a trailer queen in the next year or so. Thanks
