Now, I listed my results and learned a lot of handy information, like the difference between hub-centric and lug-centric balancing, and I'll probably get them rebalanced by the same shop using the proper method for trailer tires (apparently that is lug-centric. Still need to verify this information) but I still thought making a thread would be beneficial to other owners.

Cheers!
Besides the need to balance we always had metal stems put in and new tires every 4 years when we had a trailer.
