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
I prolly have more real world experience than you do

I would ship my tires to AB or JA first ... real people .

But you "might" be correct ...
