yea that video was pretty funny, but it doesnt look like 12 inch tires to me..more like 8 inch.

yea i heard most use denat. alcohol but i didnt have any, and what is metho. any household products contain that? i used my mouthwash one time cus it said it contained denat alchol.
do you guys think gorilla duct tape would work? i dont have any lead tape. gorilla tape is pretty heavy, or is that still too light to counter balance? ive been trying to do that but its still shaking and offbalanced. this seems very hard, im like trying to guess where i need the strips of tape and its not working. it seems like EVEN if i did put the tape on the correct side, it would still shake and be unbalanced cus i need to ALSO put it in the correct place. i think thats why its moving from left to right as well as shaking.
i seriously thought the white dot trick would tell me where the heavy side is, heavy side with the white dot stopping at the bottom.
do you guys think maybe it is balanced but the tape rolled up to one side of the tire ( left or right of tire , instead of up and down) which is why the white dot is stopping at random places, and the tires is spinning in a squiggly line?
