Terry;
You may be correct that these ancient tire balance machines have gone away. Do you have access to autocad or autocad LT? If so, you can measure the distance between adjacent bolt holes and measure the distance across bolts if you skip a bolt. In ACAD draw a 5 sided polygon and scale it up using a Reference dimension of the distance between 2 adjacent holes as the length of one side of the pentagon. You can draw a circle through 3 points (3 of the vertices of the pentagon) and then measure the diameter of that circle. Use the longer dimension of the skiped bolt distance to construct another pentagon and check to see if the diameters are close to each other.
