I just had new Yokos put on the rear of my Roadster. I have the standard wheels.
Yokos have a yellow mark to indicate low weight side (you put it by the valve stem obviously) and a red mark to indicate maximum tire runout. Yoko claims that mounters should first match the red dot to the wheel's mark for minimum runout, but that some wheels aren't marked for runout.
Does anyone know if Tesla standard wheels are marked for runout?
My tires have quite a lot of 1/4 oz weights on them, and I can see the yellow dot is no-where near the valve stem. On one tire, it's 165 degrees from the valve stem, so it needed a lot of weights. Was that co-incidence from the runout, or did they just ignore the dots? Ideas for how to find out?
