Got the new BT46 replacement tire today. Will have it mounted tomorrow.
I put the wheel on my balancer to find the heavy spot with no tire.
The tire store that mounted the last one, replaced the stem with a straight one after I told them not to.
That put the heavy spot 90 degrees opposite of the stem at 3/4oz.
The wheels are designed to use the 90 degree stem that mounts with rubber washers and nuts. According to the Honda mechanic I talked to today.
This makes the heavy spot at the stem. So they always put the yellow spot on the tire at the stem.
With the right stem on my particular wheel, the heavy spot is still opposite the stem by 1/8oz.
I marked it so we'll see what he does with it tomorrow.
As long as he can balance it, its all good. He has a nice automatic spin balancer.
If later on it needs more balancing, I'll add some beads.
