Mounting my new Michelin pilot power 2ct and there's no balance mark. Maybe there's not supposed to be but its the first one I've seen without one. Any tips?

Just put it on and balance as usual.

or you could put just the rim on the balancer and at least find the heavy point, and go from there.

i havent mounted a bike tire that had a balance mark for a long time. even without one, i mount a tire, put it on the balancer and almost never seem to have to add any weight. cant remember the last time i had to.

Found a letter B on it so used that as the mark. It didn't need any weight. The last tire I mounted didn't need any either. She's back on the road, now I just need to keep an eye on that oil leak I found.
