Default Clutch/flywheel combo

When does one have to balance a clutch/flywheel combination
every time you put a new one in or only when your trying to use a flywheel not designated for your particular engine?
I'm trying to decide whether to get a combo and trying to find out whether I should have it "balanced". What exactly "balanced" means i donÂ’t know, but i read that people recommend doing that before and install.

Any thoughts?

If the flywheel is made for the car it shouldn't have to be balanced(unless you are getting it lightened), but it should be resurfaced when replacing the clutch.

So if your replacing both at the same time no extra work is needed?
