There's a place in San Antonio that does this. I'm thinking of having it done next time I get new tires installed. I'm sick of the steering wheel wobble.

Haven't had it done, but looked it up a while back as my F150's 35's had an out of round tire. I thought they were done on a machine that had the scraper device that does the truing at an equal distance from the center? And why would it matter which corner of the vehicle it's on after since the wheel and tire unit are now balanced?
