Just wanted to see if anyone was using centramatic wheel balancers and how they liked or disliked them.

Thanks ,

I used them on my H1 to keep the 37" meats, runflats, CTIS and split-rims balanced. I was pretty happy with them after I got used to the noise them made when rolling to a stop. One thing to keep in mind, however, is that the tires need to be balanced BEFORE using them. They are not a solution to unbalanced tires, just a means to keep hard-to-balance tire/rim combinations from becoming problems again. If I had to describe them as deal or dud, I would choose deal.
