Default RE: why tire balance is critical

Ok now i have since day one, long family line of mechs, known how crucial tire balance is, christ my brother raced stock cars, Kind of odd to see a 10" rim with huge ass racing tires Litereally fully balanced. Everyone told him Balancing a dirt tire makes no damn difference, And he responded, " You need to understand that with a balanced tire all 360 degrees of this tire will make a contact patch when in rotation with the ground, instead of 300 or 290 or 320. If a tire unbalanced on the road has a habit of vibrating, schimmeing, or worst Hopping, than an unbalanced tire will also have teh same effect in the dirt, which means you have less control of traction and handling,... Dip****"

Now my shadow has a vibration just after take off and when accelerating hard, The tires are balanced?...
