Can it be used to effectively dish wheels. I like the Park TS-2, but it doesn't stay calibrated for dish. The way Pedros Precision Wheel Truing Stand looks, it appears it may stay centered better for dishing, is that true?

It works great, eliminates the extra stand laying around because it fits right on upright, and there is no wheel size restriction.

Works really well with road wheels (hub mounted nipples) where a one-arm design gives amazing unrestricted access. It is the most primitive, but most accurate by FAR. Each precision click is .1 mm - roughly a human hair thickness. No "push-in" or "turn the little handknob in" type of truing stand can get as precise as the Ultimate. Also, the dial indicator can be moved up the shaft to true disk brake calipers - a Morningstar Disk Rotor Truing Tool will set you back $80 alone for this type of work. Also the Ultimate truing station fits on top of ANY of the Ultimate repair stands making for a truly portable design. Take it everywhere. The Ultimate repair stand with truing arm attachment is ideal for those going racing, camping, etc. and like to bring all their gear with them just in case. It's saved my butt im Moab twice! The new Pro Elite repair stand with truing stand accessory and tote bag weights less then 15 pounds.

I run Stan's, so it's always a pain in the butt to remove the tire for routine maintenance. Gonna run out right after the holidays and pick up the Park extensions!
