They never picked up on mine being bent after having them rebalanced numerous times. Spun the wheels while up on the rack and you could see a small wobble. The wheels will balance even if bent, but the installer should spin them a 2nd time, sometimes even a 3rd as a bent wheel will come up with different readings each time.

Bridgestone are the worse. I have had luck with Yokos though in my 94
I just put on the Bridgestones and they seem to ride like i am on glass. The previous tires were Yokohamas. Good, but they had soft sidewalls.
