I balanced both and ended up with about 8 grams on the front opposite the valve stem and 30 grams on the rear opposite the valve stem. Time will tell how long they will last.



Phil ten, both mine front and rear are directional and cannot be switched around.
really? i swear my front wasn't directional??? got Tourances on at the mo as ive just done a tour but am switching back to my T63 / E0-9 so will check once i dig the tyre out.

ive never bothered balancing knobblies. Glad you like them, im impressed with my front.
