The Nationwide CB66-VE wheel balancer delivers professional-grade precision and versatility at an unbeatable value. Engineered to handle the most demanding wheel balancing applications, this advanced LED touch-panel system accommodates large rims up to 28" in diameter and overall wheel diameters up to 44", making it ideal for passenger cars, SUVs, light trucks, and motorcycles. With a robust 40mm diameter balancing shaft built for exceptional durability and longevity, the CB66-VE provides 1 gram accuracy and 5 to 7 second balancing time at a low-RPM operation of just 140 RPM—extending the life of sensitive electronics and moving components while delivering highly reliable results.
What sets the CB66-VE apart is its exclusive laser and light indicator system that automatically illuminates the inside of the wheel at the exact unbalanced weight position, allowing technicians to apply wheel weights with pinpoint precision and confidence. Featuring multi-mode vehicle balancing with SUV, car, and motorcycle modes standard, plus 5 ALU Standard modes and 2 ALU Smart modes, this balancer adapts to virtually any wheel configuration. The integrated measurement acquisition wand, user-friendly LED touch-panel keypad with intuitive icons, and convenient foot pedal braking system ensure fast, efficient, and accurate workflow in any busy shop environment.
Professional Performance, Built to Last
The CB66-VE is built around a precision-engineered extra-long, heavy-duty balancing shaft—12" long and 40mm in diameter—designed to accommodate a wide range of wheels, including unique aftermarket wheels of different sizes and shapes. This rugged construction ensures stability and reliability, even when balancing heavy wheels up to 150 lbs capacity.
Operating at a low 140 RPM, the balancer reduces wear and tear on internal components and electronics, ensuring long-term durability and consistent accuracy. The system delivers balancing results in just 5 to 7 seconds with an impressive 1 gram accuracy, helping technicians work faster without sacrificing precision. The large 38" wheel shroud keeps debris contained during operation, maintaining a clean and safe workspace.
Designed for convenience and efficiency, the Speed-Nut mounting system allows for quick and secure wheel mounting to the spindle with a convenient lead-in screw, minimizing downtime between balancing jobs. The integrated multi-pocket wheel weight shelf features 14 articulated pockets over 1.5" deep, providing ample storage for weights and tooling right at your fingertips.

The pedal is positioned for comfortable operation and responds instantly to stop the wheel at the 6 o'clock position.
Exclusive Laser & Light Indicators
The standout feature of the CB66-VE is its dual laser and interior light indicator system. When operating in ALUS mode, the external laser automatically lights up at the unbalanced weight position when the wheel is at the 6 o'clock position. Simultaneously, the interior light illuminates the inside of the wheel at the exact spot where weight needs to be applied. This exclusive dual-indicator system eliminates guesswork and dramatically improves weight placement accuracy, especially on complex alloy wheels with hidden spoke designs.
