Pressure all depends in size and weight of the car and the size of the tyre in question and what sort of driving you are doin.The idea of balancing a wheel is to get rid of the vibrathion. Balancing them depends weather you can live with the vibrathion or not. The only difference is some motorsports ask you to put tape over the weights if you are using stick on
