Abstract
An apparatus for balancing a vehicle wheel simultaneously shows both dynamic imbalance and static imbalance. At least one corrective weight is attached to the wheel to correct the static imbalance. A residual static imbalance is then determined after attachment of the corrective weight. Finally, the corrective weight is adjusted to reduce the residual static imbalance.
