iDEAL Motorcycle & Auto Wheel Balancer, Black Finish — WB-953-B-MCAB-K-BLK
The Tuxedo WB-953-B-MCAB-K-BLK is the black-finish version of the WB-953-B-MCAB-K dual-purpose wheel balancer, built to handle both motorcycle wheels and passenger car/light-truck wheels on one machine. It balances motorcycle tires from 14.5 in to 32 in in diameter and auto/truck tires up to 39 in, with a rim diameter range of 10 in to 24 in and rim width from 1.5 in to 20 in.
Specifications and functionality are identical to the standard-finish WB-953-B-MCAB-K: keypad data entry, 1-gram accuracy on wheel/tire assemblies up to 150 lb, and 110V/15A single-phase power. The only difference is the black powder-coat finish.
It's built for powersport dealerships, general repair shops, and independent tire/wheel service businesses that want one balancer covering both motorcycle and automotive wheel work, in a black-finish machine to match other black-finish shop equipment.
Who It's Built For
- ✅ Powersport dealerships and motorcycle repair shops adding wheel balancing capability
- ✅ General repair and tire shops that want one balancer covering both motorcycle and auto/light-truck wheels
- ✅ Shops that prefer a black-finish machine to match other black-finish equipment
What It's NOT Built For
- ❌ Wheel/tire assemblies over 150 lb or auto tires over 39 in diameter
- ❌ Shops needing fully automatic data entry (this unit uses keypad entry, not laser/sonar auto-measurement)

What Makes the WB-953-B-MCAB-K-BLK Different
Same Dual Motorcycle & Auto Capability
Covers motorcycle tires 14.5 in–32 in and auto/truck tires up to 39 in on a single balancer, with a 10 in–24 in rim diameter range, identical to the standard-finish model.
Black Powder-Coat Finish
The only difference from the standard WB-953-B-MCAB-K is the black finish — all functional specifications, capacities, and power requirements are identical.
Keypad Data Entry
Rim width and diameter are entered via keypad rather than automatic sonar/laser measurement.
1-Gram Accuracy, 150 lb Capacity
Balances wheel/tire assemblies up to 150 lb to within 1 gram of accuracy.
110V Single-Phase Power Only
No compressed air line is required — the balancer runs on standard 110V, 15A single-phase power alone.
✅ Best For
- ✅ Shops that need to balance both motorcycle and passenger/light-truck wheels on one machine
- ✅ Facilities with only 110V single-phase power available at the balancer location
- ✅ Shops standardizing on black-finish equipment
❌ Not Ideal For
- ❌ Wheel/tire assemblies heavier than 150 lb
- ❌ Shops wanting fully automatic sonar/laser rim measurement instead of keypad entry
