I'd like to do my own tire changes with balancing, but I either don't have the skill or the right tools to do it without damaging aluminum rims. I recently changed the front tire on my motorcycle, and it took like an hour on 4 different occasions for me to finally figure it out, with a little scuffing to the rim.

What I'd really like to experiment with is using antifreeze as dynamic balancing media.
