To ensure an accurate balance, Lug Centric wheels must be mounted on the balancer through their lug bolt pattern. Lug Centric wheels, when mounted on the vehicle, are centered by the torque of the lug bolts and not the center bore of the wheel.
The only way to properly balance Lug Centric is through their lug bolt pattern. This style wheel must be mounted to the computer balancer in the same manner as it is mounted on the vehicle...through the lug bolt pattern.
Lug centric mounting on the wheel balancer mimics the way the wheel is mounted to the vehicle.
If you are balancing Lug Centric wheels, you must use the Atlas® Universal Adapter. The standard cone system will not work properly.
