its probably not a trust/lazy issue... dynamic balancers are expensive and small shops probably have older static balancers... just go to a franchise shop like sears, pep boys, sts and tell them u want ur wheels balanced dynamic. ... hope this info helps! ...
shaking is not an alignment issue. shaking may be caused by bad tires/wheel bearings/bent rim/cupping of tires, all WHICH can cause alignment issues.

[quote=imajinmyfx;8531760]could be a warped hub or forzen caliper .. what yr are the hondas? .. is it just shaking of the steering wheel and/or pulsation in the brake pedal?
our 2005 honda odyssey , just had brand new goodyear on with new rotors, pads. They only shake around 65-80 mph. Over 85, they stop shake. Weird. There are no weight outside the rims. Got new tires at Sam clubs.

we have a bunch of cars . EVery car shake. None of the car have the weigh on the outer rims, i asked the balancer guy and he said they look bad and the weigh should be inside the wheel. Most of the shop now only put weigh on the inside rims. Some do stick on weigh too. I just changed new front rotors, pads, tires on both hondas car and van but steering wheel still shake especially when braking hard. Weird. So Sears and pepboy are the best place to balance tires?

Alright. Now that I drove with the windows down yesterday I noticed a noise. It sounds like its coming from the wheel I replaced. Its like something is stuck to the tire and as it hits the pavement it makes a little noise. I'm guessing the tire back there is junk or something but as I go faster, the sound occurs more frequently. I still haven't had the chance to re balance the wheel though. I've been busy working 60+ hours a week.

If I have a chance, I'll put my winter wheels on in the rear and go for a drive. If it still makes the noise, I'll probably bring it to a shop and have them look at it. I hav e a feeling its still the wheel because its comming from the rear which is where I put the new wheels but when I curbed it, it was up front.

I'm actually going to take the wheel off today and inspect the tire and wheel. I'm gonna bring it to my buddy's dad shop and have him rebalance the wheel and have him see if he can find anything wrong with it. I just don't understand how the car drove find with a damaged wheel and then I just simply replaced the wheel and now all these probs have come up.
