    Guys, I just picked up a set of m6 replica wheels for my M3 and had dunlop snows put on them. The guy at the shop said one wheel required "27 pounds" to balance them vs the "25 pound" max reccomended. He said it should be a problem. These are 18x8 rims and the wheels are dunlop winter sports. Should I be worried about the 27 number?

    Guy said it Should Not be a problem..... sorry for the typo. let me know your thoughts Also,just hung up with the mechanic... turns out the 25 vs 27 pounds is related to the hunter roadforce machine. I guess it is very sensitive and since the tires were mounted cold it caused a bad reading. Problem was the rubber not the rims. You guys can ignore my post...
