Single plane balancing really doesn't work well. The tires are heavy enough
and the rims are wide enough that you get 2nd order vibrations away from the
single balance plane.
Sean, you're just going to have to shop around to find a shop with the
plastic coated weights, OR if your Avus' look like mine, you won't care and
ANY clip on weight will do.
 HTH!
