Think xenon has explained it... I just had to intervene, when I saw a guy try and balance a wheel that was wobbling on the balance rig. He couldn't understand that although his readout was 0 the wheel would be out of balance. He insisted the machine self centred the wheel. Had to give him some 'tips' for keeping his machine clean and checking the wheel was running true. So I get him to remount the wheel and give him the OK that the wheel is free of run-out. He re-reads the data and it is way out of balance. Get him to strip the weights (not add more as he wanted to) and start again.
I'm sure many wheels suffer this uncaring attitude to balance and users are to and fro to rebalance wheels.
Soap box of mine, as you can tell.
