Am I the only one who has this issue? Pittsburgh doesn't have many places with a roadforce machine so I have no idea why its so complicated. Also, is it true that the weights should only be in one location on the tire and not spread out among multiple areas?

Sorry for the rant, just sick of having to waste time with this.
When you say "shimmy" means your steering wheel moving? or your passenger seat? I wonder if I need balaincing, my steering wheel its smooth though.. only when I reach about 80mph and release the gas pedal i feel a vibration...
