The compact Universal Tire Balancing Station for 1/10, 1/8, 1/6 and 1/5 wheels allows you to quickly and easily balance car tires by identifying the heaviest part of the wheel so that proper balancing aids can be applied. This also helps to identify improperly glued rubber tires or differences in inserts. Precision-balanced tires will improve your car's traction and stability, and also give improved shock absorber action.

The super-stable base board securely and firmly holds the balancing wheel adapter, and the smart clamping system ensures that the wheel adapter does not bind and can rotate absolutely freely. The high-quality, high-precision ball-bearings used in the wheel adapter are degreased and lightly oiled for ultra-fine wheel rotation, helping to identify even the smallest inaccuracies of the tire balance.

Requires Wheel Adapters: Sold Separately
Wheel adapters are available optionally for different scale wheels: 1/10 touring cars, 1/8 off-road, truggy and rally, and also for 1/5 on-road and 1/6 off-road. The wheel adapters come with a CNC-machined aluminum holder and one-piece super-strong and precise steel rod that rotates in the ball-bearings. The hex on the wheel adapter fits precisely into the wheel and a machined tightening nut is included for fast and comfortable wheel tightening. All alloy parts are CNC-machined from highest-quality aluminum with stylish black coating and laser engraving.

Hudy Universal Tire Balancing Station
I use alot of Hudy products due to their quality and craftmanship. More than just a pretty peice, it's designed to work and work well. Anything out of balance in the drive train will translate into ineffeciencies no one wants, even if just bashing. There is a reason full size tire/rim combos are balanced, so makes sense to balance any wheel/tire combo at scale levels.

I have looked at many balancers before I settled on this one. This is a much needed tool for any serious racer, I knew my tires wher out of balance but I never knew they were that bad untill I recieved this tool. The bearings on hubs are of the highest quality. You can breathe on this thing and it will roll. Being I am a Quality engineer for a machine shop I know good workmanship when I see it. This product is worth every penny. I know becuase I tried to make one and it would have cost me atleast twice what this costs!

This is the best 1/8 scale tire balancer that I have ever used. You do not even have to use the 17mm wheel nut to keep the tire on. With 1/8 scale truggy tires other balancers this style would normally tip over or you would have to clamp it to your work surface. As usual Hudy makes A++++ tools.

Love it! A must to balance wheel sets, including ones for 2S/3S vehicules. Surprizing to see how many of my cars sets were not very well balanced (some very badly), and also surprizing to see the difference they make once balanced. The only downside is that so far, Hudy seems to only make balancers for 10mm and 17mm HEX wheels, not for the 12mm and 14mm HEX found on some of Arrma's vehicules. You would otherwise have to tinkered yourself ome kind of adapter.

Great product, really enjoy using. The bearing is very precise and the wheels find the heavy section quite easily. Im using RB putty and it's a joy to get my sets of wheels balanced

This is a very useful tool and worth every penny if you want the most out of your car. Dynamite Wheel Balancing Tape works great along with this.

How does this thing work? I was wondering if it is really worth getting this tool, how can it detect where to put some weight for balancing?
