Default Peeps with 19in wheels, how often do you have to have your wheels balanced.Yes BALANCED not rotated?

I want to know because after having my wheels for like a couple thousand miles, they need to be rebalanced. I'm pretty sure they didn't throw a wieght, it seems like after I hit a couple minor imperfections on the road it started. I haven't hit anything hard enough to bend a wheel so I dont know but it pisses me off!! I don't like vibrations in the steering wheel and pedals. Any and all info is greatly appreciated.

Hmmm that's odd. I haven't re-balanced it since I've had them, 7 mos and going. Nice wheels BTW!

Default Every month for me...it's worth it to keep a smooth ride and keep your tires from getting choppy.

Every month for me
