I've had the same trouble you're having for years. I own a tire business and let me tell you. I've had these wheels on new and used trailers and they're all the same problem. Bounce, bounce, bounce, bump, bump, bump, stuff shaking off, etc fyi, I have always been told to NOT balance tires and wheels on utility trailers, they will bounce if you do and they will bounce if you don't so whats the point? Trailers with hubs which have studs and acorn nuts aren't as bad as the one you have but they're bad enough. The best bet to reduce bouncing, as I'm told is to have a trailer with the rubber suspension instead of the leaf springs but they bounce also. As far as the comment about the mobile home set up self centering, its probably meant to be but they did a sorry job in the engineering department. If you find a solution please let us know. If that trailer had been sitting for a while and especially if the tires are belted instead of radial they probably have flat spots where the bottom was on a flat surface. Good luck, Sonny
