This has been brought up previously probably on a number of occasions. Many people are not concerned about balancing the wheels on their caravan and even tyre fitters state it is not necessary. However IMHO it stops vibration in the caravan and you do not end up with open drawers when arriving at your destination. It may also help preventing cracks in the ABS occurring more a few years. I have no idea if it also help save a minute amount of fuel.
We had our wheel balanced a few years ago and were totally amazed at the weights that they had to fit. I think one was nearly 120gms. Most were about 50gms. When we have the tyres replaced within the next two years with mid range tyres we will pay the extra to have them balanced. It would be interesting to see if the weights will be as much. I am not sure how much influence the type or brand of tyre actually has on the balancing.
