Overview
The Hunter RFE22 Road Force Elite is a diagnostic wheel balancer that combines traditional balancing with Road Force Measurement technology to identify and solve vibration problems faster than conventional balancers. Equipped with SpeedClamp System and HammerHead TDC Laser System, it features a diagnostic load roller that applies up to 1,250 lbs of force to simulate real-world road conditions, detecting hidden issues that standard balancers miss. The RFE22 uses inner and outer camera assemblies with structured light to automatically scan wheel dimensions during spin, while Enhanced SmartWeight technology utilizes a scanned rim profile to deliver more accurate balances with increased single-weight solutions and reduced weight usage.

Key Features
Road Force Diagnostic Roller
Applies up to 1,250 lbs of variable force to mimic how a wheel performs under vehicle load, identifying hidden causes of vibration and vehicle pull that standard balancers cannot detect.
Patented Vision System
Inner and outer camera assemblies use structured light to automatically scan the wheel during spin with no moving parts for ultimate reliability, eliminating manual dimension entry errors.
SpeedClamp System
Rapid wheel mounting system significantly reduces setup time while ensuring secure clamping for passenger car and light truck wheels up to 175 lbs.
HammerHead TDC Laser
Integrated Class 1 laser system provides precise top dead center marking and weight placement guidance for accurate correction weight positioning.
Enhanced SmartWeight Technology
Utilizes scanned rim profile to optimize balance with more single-weight solutions, reducing weight usage by up to 30% while improving balance quality and hiding weights behind spokes.
ForceMatching and StraightTrak
Locates the stiffest area of tire and lowest rim spot for match-mounting to cancel radial-force vibration; measures individual tire pulls and recommends wheel placement to eliminate vehicle drift.
