I'm about to do this myself. My front rim is not true and has slight vibration at certain speeds. Been debating just handing the shop my whole front wheel with tire to let them take care of it because it's been such a pain to me, I just want someone to do it correctly and not have to worry about it. $139 per hour, so that could be potentially be $280... Now I'm very much wondering about getting the $50 harbor freight stand and truing it myself.

Any recommendations on what size wheel weight to get? They have 1/4oz and 1/2oz, I would assume the 1/4oz would be better to dial it in more accurately.
