Re: the dreaded wheel bounce
You could let the air out and turn the tire on the rim, you may find that they are closer to to round!

Re: the dreaded wheel bounce
That's a pretty good idea. Unseating the bead will be a challenge at home without a tire machine.

Re: the dreaded wheel bounce
Balancing them might help if they are out of balance.
It will not help on the out of round part. Repositioning them on the rim won't help anything in my opinion. |

Re: the dreaded wheel bounce
But it won't cost you anything to try rotating each wheel/tire in 90° increments. It won't help any individual tire, but if they are all in "sync" as far as out of round...

Re: the dreaded wheel bounce
I have used that method on tires that would not otherwise balance

Re: the dreaded wheel bounce
Well, I brought all 4 tires in to discount tires to have them balanced this morning. They said it would take obscene amounts of weights to balance and even then no guarantees , they advised against it ; I'm sending them back on mon, hopefully they can test a set before shipping them
