Hi
Had some experiences in the past with fitting and balancing new tires, found the following points helped.
1/ Use tire mounting lubricant, not just soap and water.
2/ Position Red Dot and Yellow Dot markings correctly. (Red Dot takes precedence)
3/ Do initial balancing. (optional).
4/ Fit to car and drive until scrubbed in.
5/ After some spirited driving remove wheels/tires from car and balance while hot.
Cheers
