The is really not a good idea. Please go and buy the forth matching tire ASAP.

And yes, the wheels should all be balanced after the tires are installed.

 

i'm surprised they mounted them for you....and why wouldn't they balance them?

this is a little ridiculous....

 

Some "budget" shops will charge extra for balancing, though this isn't often done because there is rarely a situation when you'd want the tires mounted but not balanced. It's more just an attempt to make the mounting fees seem cheaper than the competition.

 

yeah they tried to charge me me for balance..but yeah didnt have enough....if i switch the tires around would it make a difference?

 

If anything, it would make matters worse to switch them around. Borrow the money if you have to, but pick up a forth matching tire and have them all properly balanced.

 

Riding on unbalanced tires will give you a rougher/annoying ride, but if you don't have alot of money, get the 4th tire first. You're basically burning your money that you spent on the other three right now. And go somewhere legit that will have one fee for mount/balance. The clowns you're going to right now probably should be selling used cars instead of working on them.
